how many weeks in the month
While 52 full weeks is a nice rounded number (not as nice as 50, though), the hard facts actually give us another more precise number. The true number of weeks in a year, to the exact decimal point, is 52.143 weeks. What does this effectively mean? That a regular type of year actually has one additional day.
So you might be asking yourself, why would anyone need to know how many 7-day weeks can fit into a 365-day year? Seems a bit wonky, no?
