If 15th January 1996 is Monday, then what will be the day of the week on 30th March 1997?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: B
Explanation
The correct answer is option 2 i.e. Sunday.
The 15th of January 1996 is Monday.
The total number of days –
1996 → (1996 is a leap year) → 16 + 29 + 31 + 30 + 31 + 30 + 31+ 31+ 30 + 31 + 30 + 31 = 351
1997 → 31 + 28 + 30 = 89
Total number of days in 1996 and 1997 → 351 + 89 = 440 ÷ 7 = 6 (remainder)
So, 6 days after Monday is Sunday.
So, the 30th of March 1997 will be Sunday.
