Today is Monday..
61th day=?
a week has 7 days..
there are 8 7's in 61
8*7=56
the 56th day must be the same monday
56+remaining days from 61
(ie)56+(61-56)
=56+5
56(mon)+5(tue+wed+thur+fri and the fifth day is saturday)
so ans is saturday..
61th day=?
a week has 7 days..
there are 8 7's in 61
8*7=56
the 56th day must be the same monday
56+remaining days from 61

I think it is Friday.
1999 + (1.1.2000 + 6.3.20000).
1600 = 0 odd days.
300 = 1 odd day.
99 years = 52 ordinary years + 27 leap years.
=52 * 1 + 27 * 2.
= 52 + 54.
= 106.
= 15 weeks + 1 odd day.
1999 = 1600 + 300 + 99.
= 0 + 1 + 1.
= 2 odd days.
->>>>>>>>>>>>>>-
1.1.2000 + 6.3.2000.
31(jan) + 29(feb) + 6(mar) = 66 days.
= 9 weeks + 3 days.
6th march 2000 = 0 + 1 + 1 + 3 = 5.
1999 + (1.1.2000 + 6.3.20000).
1600 = 0 odd days.
300 = 1 odd day.
99 years = 52 ordinary years + 27 leap years.
=52 * 1 + 27 * 2.
= 52 + 54.
= 106.
= 15 weeks + 1 odd day.
1999 = 1600 + 300 + 99.
= 0 + 1 + 1.
= 2 odd days.
->>>>>>>>>>>>>>-
1.1.2000 + 6.3.2000.
31(jan) + 29(feb) + 6(mar) = 66 days.
= 9 weeks + 3 days.
6th march 2000 = 0 + 1 + 1 + 3 = 5.

Each day of the week is repeated after 7 days
so fist day and 8th day is same.
so Today is Monday mean 64th day is Monday.
so answer is thursday
