Q:

The last day of a century cannot be

A) Monday	B) Wednesday
C) Tuesday	D) Friday

Answer & Explanation Answer: C) Tuesday

Explanation:

A century means 100 years => 76 normal years and 24 leap years

We know that, a normal year contain 1 odd day (365/7 = 52 weeks + 1 odd day)

a leap year contain 2 odd days (365/7 = 52 weeks + 2 odd days)

100 years => 76 x 1 + 24 x 2 = 124 odd days = 124/7 = (17 weeks + 5 odd days)

200 years => 2 x 5 = 10 = 1 week + 3 odd days

300 years => 3 x 5 = 15 = 2 weeks + 1 odd day

400 years => 4 x 5 = 20 + 1 odd day (leap year) = 3 weeks + 0 odd days

500 years => 5 x 5 = 25+1 = 26/7 = 3 weeks + 5 odd days

Again repeats...
