Solution

Friday January 16, 2015

521 weeks ago from today was 16 Jan 2015, a Friday. Anytime we’re subtracting halves of the year, we need to ensure that we’re still in 2025. It looks like 521 weeks from now will bring us back to pre 2024 and we’ll need to factor this into our subtraction because it will change the calendar and fiscal years. For larger calculations like this, I start by subtracting total days, then counting backwards 3647 days on a calendar until getting my solution of Friday January 16, 2015.

How we calculated 521 weeks before today

All of our day calculators are measured and QA'd by our engineer. Read more about the Git process here. But here's how 521 weeks ago gets calculated on each visit:

  1. We started with date inputs: used current day of 10 Jan, then set the calculation - 521 weeks, and factored in the year 2025
  2. Noted your current time of year: 521 weeks in January will bring us back to or further.
  3. Counted backwards weeks from current day: date - 10 Jan, factoring in the 10 days left in January to calculate Friday January 16, 2015
  4. Did NOT factor in workdays: In this calculation, we kept weekend. See below for just workdays or the fiscal calendar

Tips when solving for January 16

  • Current date: 10 Jan
  • Day of the week: Friday
  • New Date: Friday January 16, 2015
  • New Date Day of the week: Friday
  • Counting back form January will put you close, if not passed, the previous year.
  • The solution crosses into a different year.
  • Your date will be a weekend. Consider if you only want workdays in your calculation.

Ways to calculate 521 weeks ago

  1. Calculate it: Start with a time ago calculator. 521 weeks is easiest solved on a calculator. For ours, we've already factored in the 10 days in January + all number of days in each month and the number of days in . Simply add your weeks and choose the length of time, then click "calculate". This calculation does not factor in workdays or holidays (see below!).
  2. Use January's calendar: Begin by identifying 10 Jan on a calendar, note that it’s Friday, and the total days in (trust me, you’ll need this for smaller calculations) and days until last year (double trust me, you'll need this for larger calculations). From there, count backwards 521 times weeks by weeks, subtracting weeks from until your remainder of weeks is 0.
  3. Use excel: For more complex weeks calculations or if you h8 our site (kidding), I use Excel functions like =TODAY()-521 to get or =WORKDAY(TODAY()), -521, cell:cell) for working weeks.

Working weeks in 521 calendar weeks

521 weeks is Friday January 16, 2015 or could be if you only want workdays. This calculation takes 521 weeks and only subtracts by the number of workdays in a week. Remember, removing the weekend from our calculation will drastically change our original Friday January 16, 2015 date.
