Difficulty: Easy
Correct Answer: Day after tomorrow
Explanation:
Introduction / Context:
The problem links a backward reference (“day before yesterday”) to a forward question (“when is Sunday”).
Given Data / Assumptions:
Concept / Approach:
If today is T and T - 2 = Wednesday, then today = Friday. Compute Sunday relative to Friday.
Step-by-Step Solution:
T - 2 = Wednesday → T = Friday.Tomorrow = Saturday.Day after tomorrow = Sunday.
Verification / Alternative check:
Backward confirmation: From Sunday (day after tomorrow), move back two to verify Wednesday as day before yesterday (Sun → Sat → Fri → Thu → Wed pattern consistent across offsets).
Why Other Options Are Wrong:
“Tomorrow” would be Saturday; “Today” would be Friday; “3 days after today” would be Monday, none equal Sunday here.
Common Pitfalls:
Setting today to Thursday instead of Friday by miscounting “day before yesterday.”
Final Answer:
Day after tomorrow
