How Many Fortnights Are in a Year?

A fortnight is a period of two weeks, or 14 days. Since a year typically has 365 days, we can calculate the number of fortnights in a year by dividing the total number of days by the number of days in a fortnight.

To find the answer, you can use the following calculation:

365 days รท 14 days/fortnight = 26.071 fortnights

So, there are 26 complete fortnights in a standard year, and a few extra days leftover. In leap years, which have 366 days, there are 26 fortnights as well, with the remaining two days not completing another fortnight.
