          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
