On what dates of April, 2001 did Wednesday fall?
Answer: Option
Explanation:
We shall find the day on 1st April, 2001.
1st April, 2001 = (2000 years + Period from 1.1.2001 to 1.4.2001)
Odd days in 1600 years = 0
Odd days in 400 years = 0
Jan. Feb. March April
(31 + 28 + 31 + 1) = 91 days 
0 odd days.
Total number of odd days = (0 + 0 + 0) = 0
On 1st April, 2001 it was Sunday.
In April, 2001 Wednesday falls on 4th, 11th, 18th and 25th.

Check all options and do verification by finding the day of 1st april (31+28+31+1) = 91 hence 91/7 = 13 remainder 0 therefore 1st april is sunday.

Hi, I had a little confusion.
Why in some cases it is 1600, 300 years and in some cases it is 1600, 400 years. Kindly explain this.

code for Wednesday is 4.
A week has 7 days;
So,
1). 4
2). 4+7 = 11.
3). 11+7 = 18.
4). 18+7 = 25.
So the answer is 4, 11, 18, 25.

Why we exclude the odd days of 2000, which is 2?
Then according to it answer may be (0+0+2+0). Right?
Please solve my doubt.

Because particular day of April was not given so we have to check out that the April 2001 starts from which day of the week?

I think this conclusion is wrong because if 1st was sunday how can be 4th wednessday.
I think 3rd is wednessday.

x+2+1+25+6 = 3.
x+34-3 = 0.
x+31 = 0.
x+28+3 = 0 (28/7 = 0).
x+3 = 0.
4+3 = 7 = 0 (7/7 = 0).
x = 4, 11, 18, 25.
x+34-3 = 0.
x+31 = 0.
x+28+3 = 0 (28/7 = 0).
x+3 = 0.
4+3 = 7 = 0 (7/7 = 0).
x = 4, 11, 18, 25.
