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.

@Vaibhav.

In the formula f = k + (13m-1)/5 +d + (d/4)+(c/4)-2c, how to determine m?

Please help me to understand. Why a total number of odd days = 0 + 0 + 4 + 3 = 7.

My dear how take 1600 years and 400 years And how leap year multiply by 2X2?

Akhil said:   1 decade ago
@Gpvsai : 15+2+10+2+6 = 35.

So, dividing 35 by 7 we get 5 which is friday.

How for march the value of month is 6? I don't understand the month value.

@Bidhya. When 7 is divided by 7 it gives remainder as 0. So odd days = 0.

Gokila said:   9 years ago
7/7= 0 remaider.
So, 7 ,14, 21, 28, 35 = have been considered as Sunday.

@Selva.

If the year is divisible by 4 that year is called as leap year.
