SSC CGL - 01 Dec 2022 - Shift 3 • Reasoning • Q88

What day of the week will be on 1st January 2033?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: A

Explanation

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

1st January 2033 = (2001 - 2032 years + 1 January 2033)

Odd days in 2000: Odd days in 1600 years = 0; Odd days in 400 years = 0

32 years = (8 leap year + 24 ordinary years) = (8 × 2 + 24 × 1) = 40 days → 5 odd day

1 January 2033 = 1 odd day

Total number of odd days = (0 + 0 + 5 + 1) = 6 odd days

Hence, 1st January 2033 will be Saturday.
