Question 39

If 5th January 2011 was a Thursday, then what day of the week was it on 1st January 2013 ?

Solution

Number of odd days in a non-leap year = 1 and number of odd days in a leap year = 2

It is given that 5th January 2011 = Thursday

=> Day on 31st December 2010 = Saturday

Now, number of odd days from year 2011 to 2012 = $$(1+2)=3$$

=> Day on 31st December 2012 = Saturday (+3) = Tuesday

$$\therefore$$ On 1st January 2013, it was Wednesday.

=> Ans - (B)
