What will be the day of the week 15th August, 2010?
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'.

Given that 15th august, 2010.
1) Add day and last two digits of the year 15+10 = 25.
2) Divide last two digit of the year by 4, so 10/4 = 2.
3) Add quotient value to step 1.
= 25+2+2(month code)+6(year code) = 35.
4) Divide 35/7 = 5 it means remainder is 0(day code) Sunday.

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

@Ayesha.
9 years should be multiply by 4.
9/4 = 2 i.e 2 leap years.
9-2 = 7 i.e 7 ordinary years.
