Final answer:
To calculate the number of working days between 09/29/2019 and 08/01/2022 without accounting for public holidays and by only subtracting weekends, the answer would be approximately 741 working days.
Step-by-step explanation:
To calculate the number of working days from the start of a project on 09/29/2019 to its completion on 08/01/2022, we will not count weekends (Saturdays and Sundays) and we should also account for typical national holidays that are considered non-working days. However, the question does not specify the exact holidays to consider, so we will only remove weekends for this calculation.
The number of days between these dates is 1047 days in total. To find the number of workdays, we need to subtract the number of weekends in this time frame. There are 52 weeks in a year. Given that there are slightly over 2 years (and a few months) between 09/29/2019 and 08/01/2022, we'll calculate the weekends for two full years and add the weekends for the extra months.
For each year, there are 52 Saturdays and 52 Sundays, which adds up to 104 weekend days per year. Multiply that by 2 for the two full years and we have 208 weekend days. For the remaining months (from September 2019 to the end of the year), there are approximately 14 weekends (28 days) and from January 2022 to August 1st, approximately 31 weekends (62 days).
Adding up the weekend days, we get 208 (from the full years) + 28 (from the remaining months in 2019) + 62 (from January to August 2022) = 298 weekend days.
Subtracting the weekend days from the total days gives us 1047 - 298 = 749 workdays. But we must clarify that without considering public holidays, this might not be the exact number of workdays. So, the closest answer to 749 from the options given would be 741 working days.
