What was the date 97 weeks ago?


Solution

Tuesday March 21, 2023

97 weeks ago from today was 21 Mar 2023, a Tuesday. Anytime we’re subtracting halves of the year, we need to ensure that we’re still in 2025. It looks like 97 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 679 days on a calendar until getting my solution of Tuesday March 21, 2023.

How we calculated 97 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 97 weeks ago gets calculated on each visit:

  1. We started with date inputs: used current day of 28 Jan, then set the calculation - 97 weeks, and factored in the year 2025
  2. Noted your current time of year: 97 weeks in January will bring us back to or further.
  3. Counted backwards weeks from current day: date - 28 Jan, factoring in the 28 days left in January to calculate Tuesday March 21, 2023
  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 March 21

  • Current date: 28 Jan
  • Day of the week: Tuesday
  • New Date: Tuesday March 21, 2023
  • New Date Day of the week: Tuesday
  • March is usually not, but sometimes super tricky. Factor in Leap Years and Easter, which falls on varying dates each year, if you need a date in the past.
  • 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 97 weeks ago

  1. Calculate it: Start with a time ago calculator. 97 weeks is easiest solved on a calculator. For ours, we've already factored in the 28 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 28 Jan on a calendar, note that it’s Tuesday, 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 97 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()-97 to get or =WORKDAY(TODAY()), -97, cell:cell) for working weeks.

Working weeks in 97 calendar weeks

97 weeks is Tuesday March 21, 2023 or could be if you only want workdays. This calculation takes 97 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 March 21, 2023 date.
