If 19 June 2001 is Tuesday, then what will be the day of the week on 14 August 2007?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: C
Explanation
The correct answer is option 3 i.e. Tuesday.
No. of days from 19 June 2001 to 31 December 2001 = 11 + 31 +31 + 30 + 31 + 30 + 31 = 195
No. of days from 1 January 2002 to 31 December 2006 = (5 × 365) + 1 = 1826 (1 leap year)
No. of days from 1 January 2007 to 14 August 2007 = 31 + 28 + 31 + 30 + 31 + 30 + 31 + 14 = 226
So, the total no. of days from 19 June 2001 to 14 August 2007 = 195 + 1826 + 226 = 2247 ÷ 7= 0 (Remainder)
Thus, Tuesday + 0 = Tuesday
