On 8th Dec, 2007 Saturday falls. What day of the week was it on 8th Dec, 2006?
Sunday
Thursday
Tuesday
Friday
Answer: Option
Explanation:

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.

Anyone could tell me why we are not considering 2007's odd day, why only 2006's odd day Is considered?

When the year becomes less than, we should subtract like 2007 from 2006.

When the year becomes greater, we should add like 2006 from 2007.
