If 15 August 2001 was Wednesday, then what was the day of the week on 2 October 2001?
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 3
Using Code Method :-
\(\frac{Date+Month code+Year code+Last 2 digits of yr+Leap yrs till given yr}{7}\)
( Note: Remainder of the above sum will be the code of week day }
15 Aug 2001;
15 + 03 + 06 + 01 + 0 = 25
remainder of \(\frac{25}{7}\) = 04
Therefore, the code of 04 is Wednesday
Similarly,
02 Oct 2001;
02 + 01 + 06 + 01 + 0 = 10
remainder of \(\frac{10}{7}\) = 03
Therefore, the code of 03 is Tuesday
