If 19 July 2000 was a Wednesday, then what would be the day of the week on 15 June 2012?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: B
Explanation
The correct answer is option 2 i.e. Friday.
July 19 to 31 = 13 days (since 2011 is not a leap year) = 6 odd days
August to Dec 2000: 31 + 30 + 31 + 30 + 31 =153 days = 6 odd days
2001 to 2011 = 2 × 2 (Leap year = 2004 & 2008) + 1 × 9 (Ordinary years) = 13 odd days
1 Jan 2012 to 15 June 2012 = 31 + 29 + 31 + 30 + 31 + 14 = 166 days = 5 odd days
Total odd days = (6 + 6 + 13 + 5) ÷ 7 = 2 odd days
Wednesday + 2 = Friday
So, 19 July 2012 will be = Friday
