Correct Answer: April, July
Explanation:
If the period between the two months is divisible by 7, then that two months will have the same calender .
(a). Oct + Nov = 31 + 30 = 61 (not divisible by 7)
(b). Apr + May + Jun + Jul + Aug + Sep + Oct = 30 + 31 + 30 + 31 + 31 + 30 + 31 = 214 (not divisible by 7)
(c). Jun + July + Aug + Sep = 30 + 31 + 31 + 30 = 122 (not divisible by 7)
(d). Apr + May + June = 30 + 31 + 30 = 91 (divisible by 7)
Hence, April and July months will have the same calendar.

Aug Sept Oct Nov Dec Jan Feb Mar Apr May Jun
16 30 31 30 31 31 28 31 30 31 11(left days)
2 + 2 + 3 + 2 + 3 + 3 + 0 + 3 + 2 + 3 + 4 (odd days) = 6 odd days
