Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: D

Explanation

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

Given: 6 November 1925 was Friday.

1925 to 1933 = 8 Years ( 6 Ordinary Year and 2 Leap Year and 2 Leap years ) 

2 Leap years = 4 Odd days 6 ordinary Years = 6 odd days 

Total odd days = 4 + 6 = 10 odd days  = 10 / 7 = 1 week and 3 odd days

6 November 1933  wiil be : Friday + 3 = Monday

6 November 1993 to 16 December 1933 = 24 (Nov) + 16 (Dec) = 40 days

40 days = 40/ 7 = 5 weeks and 5 odd days 

16 December 1933 will be: Monday + 5 = Saturday
