Another question to further explain the above statement
What will be day after 366 says(keeping today as monday)??
subtracting it from 392.
392-366=26.
26/7=3.5/7( where 3 is quotient.
5 is remainder.
7 is divisor.)
now moving back 5 days (because of remainder).
it will be thursday.
another way to calcultae thursday.
as 7*4=28
but the diff is 26
28-26=2
moving ahead(instead of backward) from monday,it will tuesday first then wednesday but the third day will be thusday so we add
2 days to manday and the result will be the third day.
I hope it works.
Its upto to your choice what you choose(backward or ahead).

Monday = 1 odd day.
61 days = (8 weeks + 5 odd days).
= 5 odd days.
Total odds = 1 + 5 odd days.
= 6.
Number 6 mentions Saturday.

Today is Monday Each day of the week is repeated after 7 days.
So fist day and 8th day is same.
So Today is Monday mean 56th day is Monday.
So answer is Saturday (process:- 8*7=56, 56th day is common ga Monday:, so 57th:-the, 58:-wen, 59:-thu, 60:-fri, 61:-sat).

Today + 61 days : 62 days.
So (8 weeks+6 days) : 62 days.
So 6 odd days ;
It is nothing but saturday.

61/8.
Since every 8th day is same.
So quotient comes to be 7.
And 7 acc to the table.
Sun - 1.
Mon - 2.
Tues - 3.
Wed - 4.
Thurs - 5.
Fri - 6.
Sat - 7 or 0.
So the answer comes out to be Saturday.
