    Highlight the area you want to have the formatting on and then you want to use a custom formula in the conditional formatting options.
    Lets assume the Applied To range for the formatting is F5:M100
    The key point is the top left corner (F5)
    Lets assume the dates above the "WEEK" number header is row 3 and the Start date is column B and End date is column C
    then use:
    =($B5<=F$3)*($C5>=F$3)

      I have applied the rule but it has not got any formatting yet, probably because of the dates I think. I want these days to be divided into weeks and divided accordingly. how can I do that?

        can you attach the sheet or a link to it? I'm not sure what you mean by "these days to be divided into weeks and divided accordingly"
