Answer & Solution

Answer: Option D
Solution:

The year 2006 is an ordinary year. So, it has 1 odd day.
So, the day on 8th Dec, 2007 will be 1 day beyond the day on 8th Dec, 2006.
But, 8th Dec, 2007 is Saturday.
∴ 8th Dec, 2006 is Friday.

14. January 1, 2008 is Tuesday. What day of the week lies on Jan 1, 2009?

Answer & Solution

Answer: Option C
Solution:

The year 2008 is a leap year. So, it has 2 odd days.
1st day of the year 2008 is Tuesday (Given)
So, 1st day of the year 2009 is 2 days beyond Tuesday.
Hence, it will be Thursday.

15. January 1, 2007 was Monday. What day of the week lies on Jan. 1, 2008?

Answer & Solution

Answer: Option B

The year 2007 is an ordinary year. So, it has 1 odd day.
1st day of the year 2007 was Monday.

Hence, it will be Tuesday.

16. It was Thursday on 12th January 2006. What day of the week it will be on January 12th 2007 ?

Answer & Solution

Answer: Option C
Solution:

There is exactly 1 year, (365 days) between two dates.
2006 is an ordinary year. It has one odd day.
The day of the week on January 12th 2007 is one day beyond Thursday ⇒ Friday

17. What day of the week will 22 Apr 2222 be?

Answer & Solution

Answer: Option A
Solution:

22 Apr 2222 = (2221 years + period from 1-Jan-2222 to 22-Apr-2222)
We know that number of odd days in 400 years = 0
Hence the number of odd days in 2000 years = 0 (Since 2000 is a perfect multiple of 400)
Number of odd days in the period 2001-2200
= Number of odd days in 200 years
= 5 x 2 = 10 = 3
(As we can reduce perfect multiples of 7 from odd days without affecting anything)
Number of odd days in the period 2201-2221
= 16 normal years + 5 leap years
= 16 x 1 + 5 x 2 = 16 + 10 = 26 = 5 odd days
Number of days from 1-Jan-2222 to 22 Apr 2222
= 31 (Jan) + 28 (Feb) + 31 (Mar) + 22(Apr) = 112
112 days = 0 odd day
Total number of odd days = (0 + 3 + 5 + 0) = 8 = 1 odd day
1 odd days = Monday
Hence 22 Apr 2222 is Monday

18. If today is Monday, what will be the day 350 days from now?

Answer & Solution

Answer: Option A
Solution:

350 days,

350/7

= 50, no odd days, so it will be a Monday.

19. What was the day of the week on 24th July 2011?

Answer & Solution

Answer: Option A
Solution:

Formula : (Date + Month code + No.of years + No.of leap year + Century code)/7

=24+0+11+2+6/7=43/7=1=Sunday
20. If the first day of a year (other than leap year) was Friday, then which was the last day of that year?

Answer & Solution

Answer: Option C
Solution:

Given that first day of a normal year was Friday
Odd days of the mentioned year = 1 (Since it is an ordinary year)
Hence First day of the next year = (Friday + 1 Odd day) = Saturday
Therefore, last day of the mentioned year = Friday
