Tuesday December 27, 2011

686 weeks ago from today was 27 Dec 2011, a Tuesday. Anytime we’re subtracting halves of the year, we need to ensure that we’re still in 2025. It looks like 686 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 4802 days on a calendar until getting my solution of Tuesday December 27, 2011.

How we calculated 686 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 686 weeks ago gets calculated on each visit:

  1. We started with date inputs: used current day of 18 Feb, then set the calculation - 686 weeks, and factored in the year 2025
  2. Noted your current time of year: 686 weeks in February will bring us back to January or further.
  3. Counted backwards weeks from current day: date - 18 Feb, factoring in the 18 days left in February to calculate Tuesday December 27, 2011
  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 December 27

  • Current date: 18 Feb
  • Day of the week: Tuesday
  • New Date: Tuesday December 27, 2011
  • New Date Day of the week: Tuesday
  • December marks the end of the year, so account for all the out of office notifications when counting backwards.
  • This calculation crosses at least one month. Remeber, this will change our day of the week.
  • The solution crosses into a different year.

Ways to calculate 686 weeks ago

  1. Calculate it: Start with a time ago calculator. 686 weeks is easiest solved on a calculator. For ours, we've already factored in the 18 days in February + 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 February's calendar: Begin by identifying 18 Feb on a calendar, note that it’s Tuesday, and the total days in January (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 686 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()-686 to get or =WORKDAY(TODAY()), -686, cell:cell) for working weeks.

Working weeks in 686 calendar weeks

686 weeks is Tuesday December 27, 2011 or could be if you only want workdays. This calculation takes 686 weeks and only subtracts by the number of workdays in a week. Remember, removing the weekend from our calculation will drastically change our original Tuesday December 27, 2011 date.
