How many weeks are in one year?

Approximately 52.178571 weeks, using the Julian year of 365.25 days. A common rounded figure is 52 weeks.

Why use 365.25 days instead of 365?

A calendar year is 365 days in a common year and 366 days in a leap year. Averaging over a 4-year cycle gives 365.25 days per year. Using 365 would under-count by roughly 1 day every 4 years.
