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

Correct Answer: 8x

Explanation:

x weeks x days = (7x + x) days = 8x days.

Correct Answer: Sunday

Explanation:

28 May, 2006 = (2005 years + Period from 1.1.2006 to 28.5.2006)

 

Odd days in 1600 years = 0

 

Odd days in 400 years = 0

 

5 years = (4 ordinary years + 1 leap year) = (4 x 1 + 1 x 2) = 6 odd days

 

(31[jan] + 28 [Feb]+ 31[Mar] + 30[April] + 28[May] ) = 148 dayss = (21 weeks + 1 day) = 1 odd day.

 

Total number of odd days = (0 + 0 + 6 + 1) = 7 = 0 odd days.

 

Given day is Sunday

Correct Answer: Friday

Explanation:

On 31st December, 2005 it was Saturday. 

Number of odd days from 2006 to 2009 = (1 + 1 + 2 + 1) = 5 days. 

 

On 31st December 2009, it was Thursday.

Thus, on 1st Jan, 2010 it is Friday

Correct Answer: Tuesday

Explanation:

16th July, 1776 = (1775 years + Period from 1st Jan, 1776 to 16th July, 1776)

Counting of odd days :

1600 years have 0 odd day.

100 years have 5 odd days.

75 years = (18 leap years + 57 ordinary years) =  [(18 x 2) + (57 x 1)] = 93 (13 weeks + 2 days) = 2 odd days

1775 years have (0 + 5 + 2) odd days = 7 odd days = 0 odd day. 

 

Jan   Feb   Mar   Apr   May   Jun   Jul  

31 + 29 + 31 + 30 + 31 + 30 + 16 = 198 days= (28 weeks + 2 days) 

 

Total number of odd days = (0 + 2) = 2.  

Required day was 'Tuesday'.

Correct Answer: Tuesday

Correct Answer: Wednesday

Explanation:

17th June, 1998 = (1997 years + Period from 1.1.1998 to 17.6.1998)
Odd days in 1600 years = 0
Odd days in 300 years = 1
97 years has 24 leap years + 73 ordinary years.
Number of odd days in 97 years ( 24 x 2 + 73) = 121 = 2 odd days.
Jan. Feb. March. April. May. June.
(31 + 28 + 31 + 30 + 31 + 17) = 168 days
168 days = 24 weeks = 0 odd day.
Total number of odd days = (0 + 1 + 2 + 0) = 3.
Given day is Wednesday.

Correct Answer: Sunday

Explanation:

The year 2004 is a leap year. So, it has 2 odd days.

But, Feb 2004 not included because we are calculating from March 2004 to March 2005.

So it has 1 odd day only.

The day on 6th March, 2005 will be 1 day beyond the day on 6th March, 2004.

Given that, 6th March, 2005 is Monday.

6th March, 2004 is Sunday (1 day before to 6th March, 2005).

Correct Answer: 4th,11th,18th,25th

Explanation:

We shall find the day on 1st April, 2001.

1st April, 2001 = (2000 years + Period from 1.1.2001 to 1.4.2001)

Odd days in 1600 years = 0

Odd days in 400 years = 0

Jan. Feb. March April

(31 + 28 + 31 + 1) = 91 days 0 odd days.

Total number of odd days = (0 + 0 + 0) = 0

On 1st April, 2001 it was Sunday.

In April, 2001 Wednesday falls on 4th, 11th, 18th and 25th.

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.

Correct Answer: Friday

Explanation:

The year 2006 is an ordinary year. So, it has 1 odd day.

But, 8th Dec, 2007 is Saturday

S0, 8th Dec, 2006 is Friday.
