26 january 1950 which day of the week?
Options- A. Monday
- B. Wednesday
- C. Thursday
- D. Tuesday
- Correct Answer
- Thursday
ExplanationWe know that,
Odd days --> days more than complete weeks
Number of odd days in 400/800/1200/1600/2000 years are 0.
Hence, the number of odd days in first 1600 years are 0.
Number of odd days in 300 years = 1
Number of odd days in 49 years = (12 x 2 + 37 x 1) = 61 days = 5 odd days
Total number of odd days in 1949 years = 1 + 5 = 6 odd days
Now look at the year 1950
Jan 26 = 26 days = 3 weeks + 5 days = 5 odd days
Total number of odd days = 6 + 5 = 11 => 4 odd days
Odd days :-
0 = sunday ;
1 = monday ;
2 = tuesday ;
3 = wednesday ;
4 = thursday ;
5 = friday ;
6 = saturday
Therefore, Jan 26th 1950 was Thursday.

Correct Answer: Wednesday
Explanation:
First,we count the number of odd days for the left over days in the given period.
Here,given period is 15.8.2012 to 11.6.2013
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
So,given day Thursday + 6 = Wednesday is the required result.

So, the day on 8th Dec, 2007 will be 1 day beyond the day on 8th Dec, 2006.
But, 8th Dec, 2007 is Saturday
S0, 8th Dec, 2006 is Friday.
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: 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.
