What will be the day of the week 15th August, 2010?

Correct Answer: Sunday

Explanation:

15 th August, 2010 = (2009 years + Period 1.1.2010 to 15.8.2010)

Odd days in 1600 years = 0


Odd days in 400 years = 0


9 years = (2 leap years + 7 ordinary years) = (2 x 2 + 7 x 1) = 11 odd days ≡ 4 odd days.



Jan.  Feb.   March    April    May  June  July  Aug. 
(31 +  28  +  31   +   30   +  31  + 30  + 31  + 15) = 227 days


∴ 227 days = (32 weeks + 3 days) ≡ 3 odd days.


Total number of odd days = (0 + 0 + 4 + 3) = 7 ≡ 0 odd days.


Given day is Sunday.
