SSC CHSL 2023 PYQ — Question 94

SSC CHSL - 02 Aug 2023 - Shift 1 • Reasoning • Q94

If 17 April 1992 is Friday, then what will be the day of the week on 10 October 1993?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is option 1 i.e. Sunday.

Given: 17 April 1992 is Friday

17 April 1993 will be Friday + 1 = Saturday

So, the number of days between 17 April 1993 and 10 October 1993 will be:

13(April) + 31(May) + 30 (June)  + 31 (July) + 31 (August) + 30 (September) + 10 (October) 

= 176 ⇒ 176 / 7 = 25 weeks and 1 odd day

So, 10 October is Saturday + 1 = Sunday

MISTAKE POINT:

Yes, 1992 was a leap year but we have counted from 17 April that's why it is reated as a normal year because 29 February is not counted in this year.
