847 weeks ago from today was 03 Sep 2008, a Wednesday. Anytime we’re subtracting halves of the year, we need to ensure that we’re still in 2024. It looks like 847 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 5929 days on a calendar until getting my solution of Wednesday September 03, 2008.

How we calculated 847 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 847 weeks ago gets calculated on each visit:

  1. We started with date inputs: used current day of 27 Nov, then set the calculation - 847 weeks, and factored in the year 2024
  2. Noted your current time of year: 847 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 September 03, 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 September 03

  • Current date: 27 Nov
  • Day of the week: Wednesday
  • New Date: Wednesday September 03, 2008
  • New Date Day of the week: Wednesday
  • Counting backward from September puts you back into the summer! September is the official start of fall.
  • 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 847 weeks ago

  1. Calculate it: Start with a time ago calculator. 847 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 847 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()-847 to get or =WORKDAY(TODAY()), -847, cell:cell) for working weeks.

Working weeks in 847 calendar weeks

847 weeks is Wednesday September 03, 2008 or could be if you only want workdays. This calculation takes 847 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 September 03, 2008 date.
