Answer
Correct Answer: Sunday
Explanation
Introduction / Context:Classic relative-day arithmetic: translate the anchor into “today,” then walk forward.
Given Data / Assumptions:
- Day before yesterday = Sunday ⇒ Today = Tuesday.
Concept / Approach:Compute day after tomorrow (Today + 2), then add 3 more days.
Step-by-Step Solution:
Today = Tuesday.Day after tomorrow = Thursday.Three days after that = Sunday.Verification / Alternative check:Sequence: Tue → Thu (after tomorrow) → Fri (+1) → Sat (+2) → Sun (+3).
Why Other Options Are Wrong:Each corresponds to a misstep in the offset chain.
Common Pitfalls:Forgetting that “day after tomorrow” already moves two days forward before adding three more.
Final Answer:Sunday
