2006 = 1(odd day).
2007 = 1(odd day).
2008 = 2(odd days-it is a leap year).
2009 = 1(odd day).
Total = 5(odd days).
Monday=1
Tuesday=2
Wednesday=3
Thursday=4
Friday=5
Saturday=6
Sunday=7/0
So now we consider 5 as Friday.
2007 = 1(odd day).

Month code for ordinary year 144 025 036 146.
Formula to find day = date + month code + last 2 digit of year + last 2 digit/4 ......note- take only whole number not after decimal.
Ex.. 15 Aug 1989.
15 + 3 + 89+ (89/4).
15 +3+ 89+22..........89/4=22.xxxx
= 129.
Divide 129 by 7.
129/7 = The remainder will be 3.
Then sunday =1
Monday=2
Tuesday=3
Wednesday=4
Thursday=5
Friday=6
Saturday=00
Aur remainder is 3 then answer will be Tuesday.
Pls, remember.
For 1900 series add in addition = 00
For series 2000 add +6
For series 2100 add +4
For series 2200 add +2
For series 2300 add +00
For series 1800 add +02
For series 1700 add +04
For series 1600 add +06

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.

Hi,
Jan 1 2006 is sun.
Jan 1 2010 is ---date is same, year is different so if you are going general year to leap year add +1 days (leap to general add +2 days).
So 2007 is mon, 2008 is a leap year (divisible by 4) so add 2 days i.e. wed, 2009 is thus, 2010 is Friday.
