@Keyuri & @Harry.
If year is divided by 4 or 400. so it is called leap year.
If year is in century then must be divided by 400.
100/400 = 100 as a reminder
400/400 = 0 as a reminder, so leap year
800/400 = 0 as reminder.., so leap year
.
.
.
. like that
Understood...!!!!

@Shekher Anand Mishra.
=> 20-04-1780.
=> 1600 = 0 odd days(because 1600 is leap year) .
=> 100 = 5 odd days(in 100).
=> 79 = in 79 (79/4 = 19(quotient)) so 19 is leap year:
=> And 70 is ordinary year.
=> 19*2 + 70*1 = 15 weeks + 3 odd days.
=> 31 +29+30+20 =120=> 120/7 = 1 odd days.
=> 0 +5 +3 + 1 =9 => 9/7 => so 2 is reminder= 2 odd days.
=> So answer is Tuesday.
