On 8th Feb, 2005 it was Tuesday. What was the day of the week on 8th Feb, 2004?

To determine the day of the week for 8th February 2004, we need to consider the number of days between 8th February 2004 and 8th February 2005. Here's how we can solve this:

1. Starting point:
   • We know that 8th February 2005 was a Tuesday.
   • We need to find out the day for 8th February 2004, which is one year earlier.
2. Determine if 2004 was a leap year:
   • 2004 was a leap year, which means it had 366 days (29th February).
3. How to calculate the day of the week:
   • To go from 8th February 2005 to 8th February 2004, we need to count the number of days in 2004.
   • Since 2004 was a leap year, the number of days between 8th February 2004 and 8th February 2005 is 366 days.
   • 366 days divided by 7 (number of days in a week) gives a remainder of 2. This means 8th February 2004 was 2 days earlier than 8th February 2005.
4. Final Calculation:
   • Starting from Tuesday (8th February 2005), we move back 2 days: Monday (1 day back), Sunday (2 days back).
5. Final answer:

   The day of the week on 8th February 2004 was Sunday.
