Friday will fall on 3, 10, 17, 24, 31
So, it will be 5th Friday on 31 st

The hands of a clock point in opposite directions (in the same straight line) 11 times in every 12 hours.
(Because between 5 and 7 they point in opposite direction at 6 'o clock only). So, in a day, the hands point in the opposite direction 22 times.

Lets find out 1^st April from Zeller's Formula:
f = k + [13 x m - 1 / 5] + D + [D/4] + [C/4] - 2 x C.
In this case k = 1 (since 1^st April)
Month m = 2 (As march = 1, April = 2)
D is the last two digit of year here D = 01 (As year is 2001)
C is 1^st two digit of century here C = 20 (As year is 2001)
f = 1 + [13 x 2 - 1 / 5] + 01 +[01/4] + [20/4] -2 x 20
f = 1 + [25/5] + 01 + [0.5] + [5] - 40.
f = 1 + 5 + 01 + 0 + 5 - 40 = -28
This - ve value of f can be made positive by adding multiple of 7
So f = - 28 + 28 = 0
So number of odd days is 0,
So 1^st April 2001 is Sunday,
So 1^st Friday is on 6^th April , so next Fridays is 13^th, 20^th, 27^th April.

In a period of 100 years there are 23 or 24 leap years (as for century year it might be or might not be a leap year, as 1900 was not a leap year)
Number of days in a period of 100 years is 365 x 100 + 23 or 365 x 100 + 24.
If century year is not a leap year then number of days = 365 x 100 + 23, and number of weeks is 5217 and 4 odd and for leap year it will be 5217 weeks and 5 odd days, hence number of Sundays is either 5217 or 5218.

Calendar of 2 years is similar if number of odd days between these two years is zero. Consider option one by one
(a) Between 1940 to 1946 we have two leap years 1940 and 1944 so number of odd days is 2 + 1 + 1 + 1 + 2 + 1 = 8 or 1 hence calendar of these two years is not similar.
(b) Between 1977 to 1982 we have one leap years 1980 so number of odd days is 1 + 1 + 1 + 1 + 2 + 1 = 6 calendar of these two years is not similar.
(c) Between 1912 to 1916 we have one leap years 1912 so number of odd days is 2 + 1 + 1 + 1 = 5 hence calendar of these two years is not similar.

Number of odd days between 2013 and 2015 is 2, so we have to find the year which will have 2 odd days between 1977 and required year.
Consider options one by one -
(a) Number of odd days between 1977 and 1981 is 1 + 1 + 1 + 2 = 5 odd days
(b) Number of odd days between 1977 and 1985 is 1 + 1 + 1 + 2 + 1 + 1 + 1 + 2 = 10 odd days or 3 odd days
(c) Number of odd days between 1977 and 1990 is 1 + 1 + 1 + 2 + 1 + 1 + 1 + 2 + 1 + 1 + 1 + 2 + 1 = 16 odd days or 2 odd days, hence calendar of 1990 is the answer.

In a year we have 53 Sundays only when year start with Sunday (For non leap year) and either with Saturday of Sunday (For leap year).
From zeller's formula 1^st January 2001 was Monday
From number of odd days 1^st January 2006 will start with Sunday so it had 53 Sunday
Similar 1^stJanuary 2009 will start with Thursday.

Let us take two cases
Case (i) : When year start with Sunday then next 4 years will always have 52 Sundays hence total number of Sundays are 53 + 3 x 52 = 209 Sundays
Case (ii) : When year start with Sunday and then we have 53 Sundays that means year is a leap year then next 4 years will always have 52 Sundays hence total number of Sundays are 53 + 3 x 52 = 209 Sundays.

If month ends with Thursday then next month will start with Friday and it may have 5 Friday otherwise it may have 4 Fridays.

Counting the number of days after 3rd November. 1994 we have :
Number of Days in November = 27 or 6 odd days.
Number of Days in December = 31 or 3 odd days.
Number of Days in January = 31 or 3 odd days.
Number of Days in February = 28 or 0 odd days.
Number of Days in March = 20 or 6 odd days.
So total number of odd days = 6 + 3 + 3 + 0 + 6 = 18 when divided by 7 gives remainder 4.
Number of odd days = 4
The day on 3rd November, 1994 is (7 - 4) days beyond the day on 20th March, 1995.
So, the required day is Thursday.
