SSC CHSL - 02 July 2024 Shift 1 • Reasoning • Q77

If 9 March 2007 was Friday, then what was the day of the week on 13 March 2012?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is option 1 i.e. Tuesday.

2007 to 2012 = 5 Years (3 Ordinary Years and 2 Leap Years 2008, 2012),

So, 2 Leap Years have 4 odd days, and, 3 Ordinary Years have 3 odd days.

Total odd days = 4 + 3 = 7 odd days.

7 odd days = 7/7 = 1 week and 0 odd days.

Then, 9 March 2012 will be Friday + 0 = Friday.

Now, the number of days between 9 March 2012 to 13 March 2012 = 4 days.

So, 13 March 2012 will be Friday + 4 = Tuesday.
