How many weekends are there in March 2009?

Correct Answer: Sunday

Explanation:

Here we have to find the number of odd days between, 5^th march and 5^th November,
Number of days in March is 26 or 5 odd days
(Here we have not included 5^th march)
Number of days in April is 30 or 2 odd days
Number of days in May is 31 or 3 odd days
Number of days in June is 30 or 2 odd days
Number of days in July is 31 or 3 odd days
Number of days in August is 31 or 3 odd days
Number of days in September is 30 or 2 odd days
Number of days in October is 31 or 3 odd days
Number of days in November is 5 or 5 odd days
(Here 5^th November is included)
So total number of odd days = 5 + 2 + 3 + 2 + 3 + 3 +2 + 3 + 5 = 28 when divided by 7 gives remainder 0 hence 5^th November will be same as that of 5^th march.

Correct Answer: Tuesday

Explanation:

From Zeller's Formula
f = k + [13 x m - 1 / 5] + D + [D/4] + [C/4] - 2 x C.
In this case k = 18 (since 18^th October)
Month m = 8 (As march = 1, April = 2, May = 3, October = 8)
D is the last two digit of year here D = 50 (As year is 2050)
C is the 1^st two digit of century here C = 20 (As year is 1950)
f = 18 + [13 x 8 - 1 / 5] + 50 + [50/4] + [20/4] - 2 x 20.
f = 18 + [103/5] + 50 + [12.5] + [5] - 40.
f = 18 + 20 + 50 + 12 + 5 - 40 = 65.
When divided by 7 we will get remainder 2, hence number of odd days is 2,
So 18^th October 2050 is 2 days more than Sunday, i.e Tuesday.

Correct Answer: Friday

Explanation:

From Zeller's Formula:
f = k + [13 x m - 1 / 5] + D + [D/4] + [C/4] - 2 x C.
In this case k = 15 (since 15^th August)
Month m = 6 (As march = 1, April = 2, May = 3, August = 6)
D is the last two digit of year here D = 47 (As year is 1947)
C is the 1^st two digit of century here C = 19 (As year is 1947)
f = 15 + [13 x 6 - 1 / 5] + 47 + [47/4] + [19/4] - 2 x 19.
f = 15 + [77/5] + 47 + [11.75] + [4.75] - 38.
f = 15 + 15 + 47 + 11 + 4 - 38 = 54.
When divided by 7 we will get remainder 5, hence number of odd days is 3,
A remainder of 0 corresponds to Sunday, 1 means Monday,
So 15^th August 1947 is 5 days more than Sunday, i.e Friday.

Correct Answer: Wednesday

Explanation:

Consider from 2^nd June 2010 to 2^nd June 2013 we have total 2 non leap year and one leap year so number of odd days are 1 + 1 + 2 = 4 so 2^nd June 2010 must be 4 days back from Sunday and that day is Wednesday.
From Zeller's Formula:
f = k + [13 x m - 1/ 5 ] + D + [D/4] + [C/4] - 2 x C.
In this case k = 2 (since 2^nd June)
Month m = 4 (As march = 1, April = 2, May = 3, June = 4 )
D is the last two digit of year here D = 10 (As year is 2010)
C is 1 st two digit of century here C = 20 (As year is 2010)
f = 2 + [13 x 4 - 1 / 5] + 10 + [10/ 4] + [ 20/4] - 2 x 20.
f = 2 + [51/5] + 10 +[2.5] + [5] - 40.
f = 2 + 10 + 10 + 2 + 5 - 40 = -11
This - ve value of f can be made positive by adding multiple of 7
So f = - 11 + 14 = 3
When divided by 7 we will get remainder 3, hence number of odd days is 3,
So 2^nd June 2010 is 3 days more than Monday, i.e Wednesday.

Correct Answer: Frfiday

Explanation:

When we divide 79 by 7 we will get remainder 2 so we have 2 odd days, so required day must be 2 days back from today (i.e Sunday) and that day should be Friday.

Correct Answer: March and November

Explanation:

January and August or October depends on leap year or non leap year. But if we find the number of odd days between March and November we will get number of odd days is 0 hence they will have same calendar.

Correct Answer: Thursday

Explanation:

The year 2008 is a leap year. It has 2 odd days. The day on 14^th feb, 2008 is 2 days before the day on 14^th Feb 2009. Hence this day is Thursday.

Correct Answer: 96

Explanation:

Number of days in K weeks is 7K hence total number of days is 7K + K = 8k or number of days must be a multiple of 8.

Correct Answer: 96

Explanation:

Number of days in K weeks is 7K hence total number of days is 7K + K = 8k
Similarly number of days in 2Kth day of the 2Kth week is 2k x 7 + 2k = 16k
Required number of days is 16K - 8K = 8K or number of days must be a multiple of 8.

Correct Answer: 15°

Explanation:

At 6 : 30 A.M. from the formula here P = 6 and Q = 30 so required angle is 11 x 30/2 - 30 x 6 = 165 - 180 = - 15 or ignoring the negative sign the required angle is 15°
