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.  

Required day was 'Tuesday'.

Q:

Question :

What is the sum which earned interest ?

Statements :

a. The total simple interest was Rs. 9000 after 9 years.
b. The total of sum and simple interest was double of the sum after 6 years.

A) Only a is sufficient B) Neither a nor b is sufficient
C) Only b is sufficient D) Both a and b sufficient
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: D) Both a and b sufficient

Explanation:

Let the sum be Rs. x

a. gives, S.I = Rs. 9000 and time = 9 years.

b. gives, Sum + S.I for 6 years = 2 x Sum

--> Sum = S.I for 6 years.


Now, S.I for 9 years = Rs. 9000

S.I for 1 year = Rs. 9000/9 = Rs. 1000.

S.I for 6 years = Rs. (1000 x 6)= Rs. 6000.

--> x = Rs. 6000

Thus, both a and b are necessary to answer the question.
