During times when leap years are every 4th year (most of the time), each four-year period has 1461 days. When you divide that by 7 days/week, you get 208 weeks with a remainder of 5 days. Friday is 5 days after Sunday, Wednesday is 5 days after Friday, etc.

Ash Wednesday is always 47 calendar days before Easter Sunday. Easter Sunday is the first Sunday after the first Full Moon after the Vernal Equinox (March 21). Lets use 2011 as an example. The first full moon after the vernal equinox is Monday April 18th. Easter Sunday is the next Sunday after that (Sunday, April 24th). Now, subtract 47 days: March 9th is Ash Wednesday.
