If 6th March, 2005 is Monday, what was the day of the week on 6th March, 2004?
Answer: Option
Explanation:
The year 2004 is a leap year. So, it has 2 odd days.
But, Feb 2004 not included because we are calculating from March 2004 to March 2005. So it has 1 odd day only.
The day on 6th March, 2005 will be 1 day beyond the day on 6th March, 2004.
Given that, 6th March, 2005 is Monday.
6th March, 2004 is Sunday (1 day before to 6th March, 2005).

Main thing is question has been given a particular day that is Monday it is need not to be necessary the correct day, that as per calendars 6th March, 2005 should be Sunday but if it is asked that it is monday then tell me what will be the day on 6th March 2004, so the formulas we apply can't be applied, because as per formulae 6th March, 2005 is Sunday.
Therefore, we need another method or common sense to use for this question, which has already been provided earlier.
