How many weeks in a year

There are 52 weeks in a year, with an additional day (or two in a leap year) beyond the full weeks. Specifically:

  • A standard year has 365 days. When divided by 7 (the number of days in a week), this results in 52 weeks and 1 extra day.
  • A leap year has 366 days, resulting in 52 weeks and 2 extra days.

So, a typical year consists of 52 full weeks, with either 1 or 2 extra days depending on whether it’s a leap year.
