SSC MTS 2026 PYQ — Question 27

SSC MTS - 10 Feb 2026 - Shift 1 • Reasoning • Q27

A person was born on 19 April 2008. What day of the week will be on his 22nd birthday?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: B

Explanation

Year interval from 2008 to 2029

Total years = 21 years

Count the leap years (after 2008)

2012, 2016, 2020, 2024, 2028 = 5 leap years

Total odd days

Ordinary years = 21 − 5 = 16 → 16 days

Leap years = 5 × 2 = 10 days

Total = 16 + 10 = 26 days

26 / 7 = 5 days

Day of April 19, 2008

April 19, 2008 = Saturday

Move forward by 5 days

Saturday + 5 = Thursday

Thursday + 1 = Friday

Correct Answer = (B) Friday
