Where 28 days shows up

Four weeks is exactly February in a common year, and that is the only month it ever equals. It is not a lunar month either: the synodic month, new moon to new moon, averages 29.53 days and swings several hours either side of that. Where 28 days does hold is in fiscal reporting, since retail 4-4-5 calendars are built from four-week and five-week blocks precisely so that every period is a whole number of weeks and every year-on-year comparison lines up by weekday.
