Answer 2

#include <iostream>
#include <string>

// Convert total days into a human‑readable "X weeks and Y days" string
std::string ToReadableWeeksDays(int totalDays) {
    int weeks = totalDays / 7;   // whole weeks
    int days  = totalDays % 7;   // leftover days

    return std::to_string(weeks) + " week" + (weeks == 1 ? "" : "s") +
           " and " +
           std::to_string(days) + " day" + (days == 1 ? "" : "s");
}

int main() {
    int days = 26;

    std::cout << ToReadableWeeksDays(days) << "\n";
}
