converting days into weeks
Hi I am trying to convert days into weeks and everythings fine until you have
only 5 days showing, but this shows up as 0.7. The formula I am using is D3/7 and i have also tried (D3-1)/7 and this shows 0.6. -- Message posted via http://www.officekb.com |

Answer: converting days into weeks
Converting Days to Weeks in Excel
When you have a number of days that you want to convert to weeks with a decimal representing the fraction of a week, you can use the following formula in Excel: =D3/7.0
For example, if you have 5 days in cell D3, the formula will give you 0.71 weeks.

Are you saying you want the number after the decimal point to be the actual number of days and not the actual fraction of a week that the number of days represents? Rick |

converting days into weeks
If you want to divide a number by 7 and get the answer 0.5, then the number
is 3.5. Bear in mind that when you divide 5 by 7 and see 0.7, that is because you are displaying only one decimal place. If you increase the number of places you will see more precision. Similarly when you divide 4 by 7 and see 0.6. -- David Biddulph "chedd via OfficeKB.com" <u18187@uwe wrote in message news:729b8e5bec410@uwe... chedd wrote: Hi I am trying to convert days into weeks and everythings fine until you have only 5 days showing, but this shows up as 0.7.
