PROBLEMS:
1.Today is Monday. After 61 days, it will be:

A.Tuesday B.FridayC.Thursday D. Saturday
Explanation:
Each day of the week is repeated after 7 days. So, after 63 days, it will
be on Monday. After 61 days, it will be on Saturday.
2.If today is Sunday, what will be the day on 7777th day?

A)Monday B)Sunday C) Wednesday D) Friday
Solution:
If today is Sunday, then the 7th day from today will be Sunday.
Similarly, the 14th day, 21st day or 70th day or 700th day or 7000th
day or 7777th day will be Sunday. Hence, the answer is Sunday.
3. If 17th march 2008 was Monday, what was 1st April 2012?
A)Monday B)Sunday C) Wednesday D) Friday
Solution:
The total number of odd days from 17th March 2008 to 17th March
2012.
2008 (leap year) 2 odd days
2009 (ordinary year) 1 odd day
Total odd days = 5 odd days
Since 17th march 2008 was Monday and 17th march 2012 is 5 days
more than Monday. Then adding 5 odd days to Monday, we get
Saturday. Hence 17th march to April 1st we have 15 days.
Saturday+15=Sunday. Adding 15 days or (15 = 14+1) to Saturday, we
get the answer as Sunday.
4.What day of the week was 15th August 1947?
A)Friday B)Monday C) Thursday D) Saturday
Solution:
The date August 15th 1947 can be divided as follows for easy
calculation:
1600 years + 300 years+ 46 years (1901 to 1946) + Jan 1st to august
15th (of 1947)
Note:- Do not write 47 years in the third section, it would indicate 47th
year in that century is over.
1600 years + 300 years+ 46 years (1901 to 1946) + Jan 1st to august
15th (of 1947)
Now let’s find out the total number of odd days in each section:
Section 1 1600 0 odd days
Section 2 300 1 odd day
Section 3
This section has 46 years from 1901 to 1946, we know that an
ordinary year has one odd day and a leap year has 2 odd days.
Let’s first calculate the total number of leap years from 1901 to 1946.
Division of 46 by 4 gives the quotient as 11, which indicates that from
1901 to 1946 we have 11 leap years. If there are 11 leap years among
46 years then remaining 35 years should be ordinary years. Hence,
35 ordinary years will have 35 odd days and 11 leap years will have
11*2 = 22 years.
The total number of odd days in 46 years will be 35+22 = 57 odd days.
The division of 57 by 7 given the remainder as 1.This indicates from
1901 to 1946 there is only one odd day.
Section 4:
It has months from January to August 15th. We have already
calculated the total number of odd days in each month in the odd
day’s section.
Since 1947 is not a leap year February had zero odd days.The total
number of odd days is 31 which when divided by 7 gives the
remainder 3. Hence, the total number of odd days in the year 1947
from January 1st to August 15th is3
Adding the total number of odd days of each section:
The total number of odd days = 0+1+1+3 = 5 = Friday. Hence, August
15th 1947 was Friday.
5.Which year in the future will have the same calendar exactly as
2009?
A. 2010 B. 2013 C. 2015 D. 2017
Solution:
Solution: If the total number of odd days between any years is zero or
it’s a multiple of seven. Then, those two years will have the same
calendar.
The total number of odd days is listed below:
Year Odd days
2009 1
2010 1
2011 1
2012 2
2013 1
2014 1
Total number of odd days = 7
Hence, 2015 will have the same calendar as 2009.
6.On what dates of April, 2001 did Wednesday fall?

A)1st, 8th, 15th, 22nd, 29th
B)2nd, 9th, 16th, 23rd, 30th
C)3rd, 10th, 17th, 24th
D)4th, 11th, 18th, 25th
Explanation :
We shall find the day on 1st April, 2001.
1st April, 2001 = (2000 years + Period from 1.1.2001 to 1.4.2001)
Odd days in 1600 years = 0
Odd days in 400 years = 0
Jan. Feb. March April
(31 + 28 + 31 + 1) = 91 days 0 odd days.
Total number of odd days = (0 + 0 + 0) = 0
On 1st April, 2001 it was Sunday.
In April, 2001 Wednesday falls on 4th, 11th, 18th and 25th.
7.How many days are there in x weeks x days?

A)7x^2 B)8x C)14x D)7
Explanation:
x weeks x days = (7x + x) days = 8x days.
8.The last day of a century cannot be
A)Monday B)Sunday C)Tuesday D)Friday
Explanation:
100 years contain 5 odd days.
Last day of 1st century is Friday.
200 years contain (5 x 2) 3 odd days.
Last day of 2nd century is Wednesday.
300 years contain (5 x 3) = 15 1 odd day.

which month of the same year?
