What is the Excel formula for weeks left in the year?

=INT((DATE(YEAR(TODAY()),12,31)-TODAY())/7) gives the whole weeks, 9 today, and =MOD(DATE(YEAR(TODAY()),12,31)-TODAY(),7) the days left over, 3. Both work in Google Sheets.

How this is calculated

Weeks left are the days left split into full weeks of 7, plus the days left over. We don't subtract ISO week numbers, because that gives a different answer around New Year. Today that's 66 days, which splits into 9 weeks and 3 days.
