Hints : Today is 20th January 2017, Sunday

A) 18th April, Friday B) 20th April, Saturday
C) 21th April, Sunday D) 19th April, Saturday

Answer:   B) 20th April, Saturday



Explanation:

Given Today is 20th January 2017, Sunday

In january, we have 31 days

February - 28 days (Non leap year)

March - 31 days

April - 30 days

=> Remaining days => 31 - 20 = 11 in Jan

+ 28 in Feb + 31 in Mar = 11 + 28 + 31 = 70 days

More 20 days to complete 90 days => upto 20th April

 

Therefore, after 90 days from today i.e, 20th Jan 2017 is 20th Apr 2017.

 

Now, the day of the week will be 

90/7 => Remainder '6'

As the day starts with '0' on sunday 

6 => Saturday.

 

Required day is 20th April, Saturday.

Q:

What was the day of the week on, 16th July, 1776?

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

Explanation:

16th July, 1776 = (1775 years + Period from 1st Jan, 1776 to 16th July, 1776)

Counting of odd days :

1600 years have 0 odd day.

100 years have 5 odd days.

75 years = (18 leap years + 57 ordinary years) =  [(18 x 2) + (57 x 1)] = 93 (13 weeks + 2 days) = 2 odd days


1775 years have (0 + 5 + 2) odd days = 7 odd days = 0 odd day. 

 

Jan   Feb   Mar   Apr   May   Jun   Jul  

31 + 29 + 31 + 30 + 31 + 30 + 16 = 198 days= (28 weeks + 2 days) 

 

Total number of odd days = (0 + 2) = 2.
