Note the days given i.e 62 days.

Given day is a Tuesday.

= 7*9 = 63-1 = 62.

So the 62nd day is a Monday.

61 days = 61/7= 8 weeks = 5 odd days.

If today is Monday.

After 61 day = Monday+5 odd days.

= Saturday.

Today + 61 days : 62 days.
So (8 weeks+6 days) : 62 days.

So 6 odd days ;
It is nothing but saturday.

Monday = 1, add 61 to it,
1 + 61 = 62/7.

we get
quotient: 8
Remainder : 6.

So, 6 means Saturday.
(51)

After 61 day is saturday. How to calculate which date will come after 61 day from today date?

Anjana said:   4 years ago
Find the odd days in 61 days.
61÷7,remainder = 5.
5 odd days so, Monday + 5 = Saturday.

Rucha said:   8 years ago
Also 61/7 remainder is 5 then add Monday +5 days comes Saturday so the answer is Saturday.

Can you please solve this question?

What was the day of the week on 17 august 1983?

Rakesh said:   6 years ago
It's Friday, not Saturday.

61/7 = 5, start from Monday and 5th day is Friday.
