1st, 8th, 15th, 22nd, 29th
2nd, 9th, 16th, 23rd, 30th
3rd, 10th, 17th, 24th
4th, 11th, 18th, 25th
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.

Odd days means the leftover days.

I will explain with an example;
Find how many odd days are there in 25 days?

So, The answer would be 4.

How?
7 days means 1 complete week and in 25 days we have 3 complete weeks that is up to the 21st day.

The remaining 4 days are odd days because it is not a complete one week.

How is Wednesday as 4 as the code is Sunday 0?

Monday 1
Tuesday 2
Wednesday 3

Only know, I don't get the point that you told Wednesday as 4 then how about Sunday code?

2001-january-1 day is Monday.

So, 2001-April 1st is Sunday.
How is that possible?

Ans) Century code: 6 (2001)
Month code: 0 (January)
Year : 01
Leap years : 0
Date : 1
Total = 8.

So, finally 8÷7=1 (Monday) - January
April 1st = 30days + 0 + 3 + 1 = 34.

= 34÷7 = 6 odd days (Monday + 6odddays).
So, April 1st Sunday.
April 4th Wednesday.
