Q:

What will be the day of the week 15th August, 2010?

A) Sunday B) Saturday
C) Wednesday D) Monday
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) Sunday

Explanation:

15th August, 2010 = (2009 years + Period 1.1.2010 to 15.8.2010)

 

Odd days in 1600 years = 0

 

Odd days in 400 years = 0

 

9 years = (2 leap years + 7 ordinary years) = (2 x 2 + 7 x 1) = 11 = 4 odd days.

 

Jan. Feb. Mar.  Apr.  May.  Jun.  Jul.  Aug.

(31 + 28 + 31 + 30 + 31 + 30 + 31 + 15) = 227 days = (32 weeks + 3 days) = 3 odd days.

  

Total number of odd days = (0 + 0 + 4 + 3) = 7 =  0 odd days.

 

Given day is Sunday

Q:

The average of five consecutive odd numbers is 61. What is the difference between the highest and lowest numbers :

A) 4 B) 8
C) 12 D) 16
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 8

Explanation:

Let the numbers be x, x + 2, x + 4, x + 6 and x + 8.

Then  [x + (x + 2) + (x + 4) + (x + 6) + (x + 8) ] / 5 = 61.

or 5x + 20 = 305 or x = 57.

So, required difference = (57 + 8) - 57  = 8
