Question
First day of the month is Tuesday and Last day of the same month is Monday. Then which one will be that month ?
Options
A. January
B. February
C. March
D. August

Correct Answer

February

Explanation

We know that the day repeats after every seven days.

Given that first day of the month is Tuesday

i.e 1st - Tuesday

1+7 = 8 - Tuesday

8+7 =15- Tuesday

15+7=22-Tuesday

22+7=29-Tuesday

But given that last day of the same month is Monday

It is possible only in he month of Febuary with 28 days.
