What was the day of the week on 17th June, 1998?
Monday
Tuesday
Wednesday
Thursday
Answer: Option
Explanation:

17th June, 1998 = (1997 years + Period from 1.1.1998 to 17.6.1998)

Odd days in 1600 years = 0

Odd days in 300 years = (5 x 3) 1

97 years has 24 leap years + 73 ordinary years.

Number of odd days in 97 years ( 24 x 2 + 73) = 121 = 2 odd days.

Jan.  Feb.   March    April    May      June 
(31 +  28  +  31   +   30   +   31   +   17) = 168 days

168 days = 24 weeks = 0 odd day.

Total number of odd days = (0 + 1 + 2 + 0) = 3.

Given day is Wednesday.

Why we are considering odd days for 300 years? Can we consider 400 year instead of 300 year than odd days also changes.

What is odd days in 1600 years = 0 and odd days in 300 years = (5 x 3)1?

Why we calculate 1600 years and 300 years?

Ravi said:   1 decade ago
Hey dude, its simply easy.

97/4 gives 24 and remaining 3.

So, 76-3=73.

So 97 =73 ordinary year and 24 leap year.

In 1998.

i.e, 98 is a leap year so you should have to consider 29 days in Feb month but you hadn't considered it.
