Every day is repeating after 7 days, so if today is Monday 8th day will be Monday. The consecutive Mondays will be multiple of 8.
Eg:8,16,24 etc.
So, 61 not multiple of 8 but 64 so 64 day is Monday then 61 day is -3 so the day is Thursday.

As week codes.
SUN - 0 , MON - 1, TUE - 2 ,WED - 3
THU - 4, FRI - 5 , SAT - 6
First find 63 days it will be
= 63/7
= 0
As per the week code its Sunday.
Any way subtract 2 days from Sundays.

Every 1st day of week is Monday according to given data.
63/7 = 9weeks ie;9 Mondays.
Therefore for 61 days is 8 weeks 5days ie; 2days earlier than Monday is Saturday.
OR
63-61 = 2.
therefore,
2 days earlier than Monday is Saturday.

That seems confusing. After 61 days implies 61/7 = 8 weeks remainder 5 days.
Since this week has its first day on Monday it means its last day is Sunday.
Thus day 56 is Sunday, adding the five remaining days gives us Friday.

61 days= 8 weeks + 5 days.
= 5 odd days.
Since Monday= 1 odd day,
= (1+5) odd days,
= 6 odd days.
Monday - 1
Tuesday - 2
Wednesday - 3
Thursday - 4
Friday - 5
Saturday - 6
Sunday - 0
So, the answer is Saturday.
= 5 odd days.
Since Monday= 1 odd day,
= (1+5) odd days,
= 6 odd days.
Monday - 1
Tuesday - 2
Wednesday - 3
Thursday - 4
Friday - 5
Saturday - 6
Sunday - 0
So, the answer is Saturday.
