Each day of the week is repeated after 7 days
so fist day and 8th day is same.
so Today is Monday mean 64th day is Monday.
so answer is thursday

Today is Monday..
61th day=?
a week has 7 days..
there are 8 7's in 61
8*7=56
the 56th day must be the same monday
56+remaining days from 61
(ie)56+(61-56)
=56+5
56(mon)+5(tue+wed+thur+fri and the fifth day is saturday)
so ans is saturday..

Each day of the week is repeated after 7 days.
So, after 63 days, it will be Monday.
After 61 days, it will be Saturday.

SUPPOSE TODAY IS MONDAY AND EACH DAY IS REPEATED AFTER THE 7 DAYS
SO 61 DAYS AFTER IS ......?
61/7 = REMAIN 5 DAYS
SO MONDAY + 5 DAY = SATURDAY.

Another question to further explain the above statement
What will be day after 366 says(keeping today as monday)??
subtracting it from 392.
392-366=26.
26/7=3.5/7( where 3 is quotient.
5 is remainder.
7 is divisor.)
now moving back 5 days (because of remainder).
it will be thursday.
another way to calcultae thursday.
as 7*4=28
but the diff is 26
28-26=2
moving ahead(instead of backward) from monday,it will tuesday first then wednesday but the third day will be thusday so we add
2 days to manday and the result will be the third day.
I hope it works.
Its upto to your choice what you choose(backward or ahead).
After 61 days, it will be Saturday.
