837 weeks ago from today was 12 Nov 2008, a Wednesday. Anytime we’re subtracting halves of the year, we need to ensure that we’re still in 2024. It looks like 837 weeks from now will bring us back to pre 2023 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 5859 days on a calendar until getting my solution of Wednesday November 12, 2008.

How we calculated 837 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 837 weeks ago gets calculated on each visit:

  1. We started with date inputs: used current day of 27 Nov, then set the calculation - 837 weeks, and factored in the year 2024
  2. Noted your current time of year: 837 weeks in November will bring us back to October or further.
  3. Counted backwards weeks from current day: date - 27 Nov, factoring in the 27 days left in November to calculate Wednesday November 12, 2008
  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 November 12

Ways to calculate 837 weeks ago

  1. Calculate it: Start with a time ago calculator. 837 weeks is easiest solved on a calculator. For ours, we've already factored in the 27 days in November + 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 November's calendar: Begin by identifying 27 Nov on a calendar, note that it’s Wednesday, and the total days in October (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 837 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()-837 to get or =WORKDAY(TODAY()), -837, cell:cell) for working weeks.

Working weeks in 837 calendar weeks

837 weeks is Wednesday November 12, 2008 or could be if you only want workdays. This calculation takes 837 weeks and only subtracts by the number of workdays in a week. Remember, removing the weekend from our calculation will drastically change our original Wednesday November 12, 2008 date.
