SSC MTS 2026 PYQ — Question 27

SSC MTS - 11 Feb 2026 - Shift 1 • Reasoning • Q27

5th of a month is Tuesday. This month has 31 days. What will be the 12th of next month?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The 5th → Tuesday

The 12th (of the same month) = 7 days later ⇒ It remains Tuesday

After a month with 31 days:

31 days = 28 + 3 ⇒ It advances by +3 days

The 5th of the next month:

Tuesday + 3 = Friday

The 12th of the next month:

From the 5th to the 12th = 7 days ⇒ The day remains the same

Final Answer: Friday
