I am not getting the answer. Could anyone explain for me? please.

Kumar Gourav said:   7 years ago
As per the given solution, if we calculate, then we get:

100 - 5 odd days - friday
200 - 3 odd days - wednesday
300 - 1 odd day - monday
400 - 0 odd day - sunday
500 - 4 odd days - Thursday
600 - 2 odd days - Tuesday
700 - 0 odd day - Sunday
800 - 0 odd day - Sunday.

I guess ideally the answer here should be none of these. Am ai right? Please, anyone explain me.

100 is divided by 4we will get 25. But 100 is not a leap year. So we have only 24 leap years and 76 ordinary years.
