If 29 November 2009 is Sunday, then what will be the day of the week on 30 May 2010?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is option 2 i.e. Sunday.

 Given: 29 November 2009 is Sunday

Let's calculate the total number of days from the 29th of November 2009 to the 30th of May 2010 –

 Number of remaining days in 2009 = 1 + 31 = 32

Number of days from 1 January 2010 to 30 May 2010 = 31 + 28 + 31 + 30 + 30 = 150

So, the total number of days from 29 November 2009 to 30 May 2010 = 32 + 150 = 182

Now, on dividing 182 by 7, we get 26 as the quotient and 0 as the remainder.

Therefore, add 0 to Sunday, Sunday + 0 = Sunday.
