What will be the day of the week 15th August, 2010?
Sunday
Monday
Tuesday
Friday
Answer: Option
Explanation:

15th August, 2010 = (2009 years + Period 1.1.2010 to 15.8.2010)

Odd days in 1600 years = 0

Odd days in 400 years = 0

9 years = (2 leap years + 7 ordinary years) = (2 x 2 + 7 x 1) = 11 odd days 4 odd days.

Jan.  Feb.   March    April    May  June  July  Aug. 
(31 +  28  +  31   +   30   +  31  + 30  + 31  + 15) = 227 days

227 days = (32 weeks + 3 days) 3 odd days.

Total number of odd days = (0 + 0 + 4 + 3) = 7 0 odd days.

Given day is Sunday.

We have 365 days for normal year, 366 days for leap year. So how no of odd days in 400 years is '0'.

@Ayesha.

9 years should be multiply by 4.

9/4 = 2 i.e 2 leap years.
9-2 = 7 i.e 7 ordinary years.

If the remainder gets 1 then what is the week?

0 = sun
1 = Monday
2 = Tuesday
So on

Am I correct?

Instead of taking 2000 as reference can we take 2008 as it is also a leap year and closer to 2009?
