- B. 25.12.91
- C. 24.12.91
- D. 23.12.91 Also asked in: AIEEE, Bank Exams, CAT, GATE, Bank Clerk, Bank PO
Correct Answer: 25.12.91
Explanation:
Given that 2.12.91 is the first Tuesday
Hence we can assume that 4.12.91 is the first Thursday
If we add 7 days to 4.12.91, we will get second Thursday
If we add 14 days to 4.12.91, we will get third Thursday
If we add 21 days to 4.12.91, we will get fourth Thursday
=> fourth Thursday = (4.12.91 + 21 days) = 25.12.91.

4 years => 365 + 365 + 365 + 366(Leap year)
4 years => 730 + 731 = 1461
Therefore, Number of Days in 4 Years = 1461 Days.

Correct Answer: 20th April, Saturday
Explanation:
Given Today is 20th January 2017, Sunday
In january, we have 31 days
February - 28 days (Non leap year)
March - 31 days
April - 30 days
=> Remaining days => 31 - 20 = 11 in Jan
+ 28 in Feb + 31 in Mar = 11 + 28 + 31 = 70 days
More 20 days to complete 90 days => upto 20th April
Therefore, after 90 days from today i.e, 20th Jan 2017 is 20th Apr 2017.
Now, the day of the week will be
90/7 => Remainder '6'
As the day starts with '0' on sunday
6 => Saturday.
Required day is 20th April, Saturday.

Options- A. Wednesday
- B. Tuesday
- C. Friday
- D. Thursday Also asked in: AIEEE, Bank Exams, CAT, GATE, GRE, TOEFL, Analyst, Bank Clerk, Bank PO

So, the day on 24th Nov, 2007 will be 1 day beyond the day on 24th Nov, 2006.
But, 24th Nov, 2007 is Thursday.
24 - 10 = 14 days.
Therefore, 2 weeks ago it is same day.
Thus, 10th Nov, 2006 is one day before 10th Nov, 2007 i.e. it is Wednesday.

Loss in 65 min. = (720/11 - 65 ) = 5/11
Loss in 24 hrs = (5/11 x 1/65 x 24 x 60)min = 1440/143 min.
