A leap year must be divisible by 4 as every 4th year is a leap year..
1600 years contains 0 odd day; 300 years conains 1 odd day. Also, 83 years contains 20 leap years and 63 ordinary years and therefore, (40 + 0) odd days i.e., 5 odd days.
? 1983 years contain (0 + 1 + 5) i.e., 6 odd days
Number of days from Jan. 1984 to 31st Oct 1984 = (31 + 29 + 31 + 30 + 31 + 30 + 31 + 31 + 30 + 31) = 305 days = 4 odd days
? Total number of odd days = 6 + 4 = 3 odd days
So, 31st Oct 1984 was wednesday
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.
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.
We 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.
How to find the years which have the same Calendars :
Leap year calendar repeats every 28 years.
Here 28 is distributed as 6 + 11 + 11.
Rules:
a) If given year is at 1st position after Leap year then next repeated calendar year is Given Year + 6.
b) If given year is at 2nd position after Leap year then next repeated calendar year is Given Year + 11.
c) If given year is at 3rd position after Leap year then next repeated calendar year is Given Year + 11.
Now, the given year is 2018
We know that 2016 is a Leap year.
2016 2017 2018 2019 2020
LY 1st 2nd 3rd LY
Here 2018 is at 2 nd position after the Leap year.
According to rule ( b) the calendar of 2018 is repeated for the year is 2018 + 11 = 2029.
We already know that the calendar after a leap year repeats again after 28 years.
Here 1988 is a Leap year, then the same calendar will be in the year = 1988 + 28 = 2016.
If yesterday were tomorrow, today is Friday => tomorrow of friday is Saturday.
Hence, it implies that today is Sunday if tomorrow is Saturday.
Given that the month begins on a Friday and has 31 days
Sundays = 3rd, 10th, 17th, 24th, 31st
=> Total Sundays = 5
Every second & fourth Saturday is holiday.
2nd & 4th Saturday in every month = 2
Total days in the month = 31
Total working days = 31 - (5 + 2) = 24 days.
