If 29 July 2001 is Sunday, then what will be the day of the week on 20 February 2015?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: B
Explanation
The correct answer is option 2 i.e. Friday.
2001 to 2015 = 14 Years (3 Leap Year + 11 Ordinary Year)
Total odd days = 11 + 6 = 17 → 2 weeks + 3 odd days
So, 29 July 2015 will be Sunday + 3 = Wednesday
Days between 20 February 2015 to 29 July 2015 = 8 (February) + 31 (March) + 30 (April) + 31 (May) + 30 (June) + 29 (July) = 159 days. = 159 days → 159/7 = 22 weeks and 5 odd days.
So, 20 February 2015 will be Wednesday - 5 = Friday
