If today is Sunday, then which day of the week will the 24th day be, counting today as the 1st day?
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 2
The correct answer is Option (2) → Tuesday
The weekday repeats every 7 days, so every 7th day after a Sunday is again a Sunday. With today (Sunday) as the 1st day, the 8th, 15th and 22nd days are Sundays too.
22nd day: Sunday
23rd day: Monday
24th day: Tuesday
Shortcut:
The 24th day comes \(24-1=23\) days after today
\(23=3\times7+2\), so 2 odd days: Sunday + 2 = Tuesday
