It was Sunday on Jan 1, 2006. What was the day of the week Jan 1, 2010?

On a fix particular date, as the year increases by one unit, the day also increases by one unit, Except for leap year where the day is increased by two units.
So coming to the problem:
On particular date 1 Jan.
Day- sun and year-2006.
So on increasing year by one unit.
Year - Day
2007 -.Monday.
2008. - Tuesday.
2009 - Thursday (when leap year is increased by one unit days Will be increased by two units)
2010 - Friday.

Leap year means 29 days in Feb.
Year whole divided by 4.
Next year of a leap is 2 days shift. Ex 1st Jan 2017 Sunday then 1st Jan 2021 Friday. 2020 is a leap year because 4 divided by 2020 or any year. After a leap year 2 days shift.
