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).

@Anil.
But 6 march 2005 was not Monday in orig calendar but actually it was Sunday while 6 march 2005 was Sunday and 2004 it was sat so logically correct and the answer is Sunday.

@All.
This question is given in RS Agarwal and the answer given in a book is Saturday. But i think the correct answer is Sunday, beacuse we did not consider feb month of 2004(so odd day is 1).
So, the correct answer is sunday.

Answer is correct because assumption is increase one day according to the calendar that's why answer is correct. According to calendar 6th march 2005 is Sunday but they assume Monday. Saturday is correct but increase one day because questions is assume Monday instead of sunday.

I Think the Both the two logics are correct but Sunday is correct when we treat it is a normal year, otherwise, the second logic is correct because it has a leap year correction, so the answer is Saturday.
