Back to paper

If 3 April 1996 was Wednesday, then what was the day of the week on 7 April 2001?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is option 4 i.e. Saturday.

1996 to 2001 = 5 years

And, In 5 years = 1 Leap year and 4 ordinary years.

So, 1 Leap year has 2 odd days,

And 4 Ordinary year has 4 odd days.

Total odd days = 2 + 4 = 6

Then 3 April 2001 will be Wednesday + 6 = Tuesday.

So, 7 April 2001 will be Tuesday + 4 = Saturday

Hence, the correct answer is "Saturday".
