      Hmm quite a mathematical question. Let's start with how many times a heart beats in a minute and take it from there:

      Heart beat/minute = 70 (for an average adult)

      60 minutes in an hour, so:
      Heart beat/hour = 70x60
                              = 4200

      24 hours in a day, so:
      Heart beat/day = 4200x24
                            = 100,800

      And finally, 7 days in a week:
      Heart beat/week = 705,600

      So, on an average an adult human's heart beats about 705,600 times in one week.

      However, this is just an approximate and not absolute. You might exercise or be frightened for some time during the week which might increase the heart rate. Similarly, your heart rate might decrease while you are resting or sleeping. But this is a fairly good estimate of the amount of times our heart beats in a week.
