According to me, the Correct answer is MONDAY.
Because the previous year is one day before next year so if 8th Feb 2005 is Tuesday then 8th feb 2004 will be Monday.

Yes, This is the correct answer, MONDAY.
Because 2004 to 2005 is the ordinary year, so 1 odd day.
And Tuesday -1=Monday.

By using the formula,

0 = SUNDAY.
1 = MONDAY.
2 = TUESDAY.
3 = WEDNESDAY.
4 = THURSDAY.
5 = FRIDAY.
6 = SATURDAY.
We need to split that year of 2004.
=> 1600 + 400 + 3 + (Jan+8).
=> 0 + 0 + 3(1) + (3+8). // (Here January Have 3 odd day then also we put 3 in there).
Substitute all the values.
3+3+8= 14 weeks + 0 odd day.
Answer is SUNDAY.
1 = MONDAY.
2 = TUESDAY.
3 = WEDNESDAY.
4 = THURSDAY.
