If 01 March 2012 was Thursday, then what was the day of the week on 01 February 2016?
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 2
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 }
01 March 2012;
01 + 04 + 06 + 12 + 03 = 26
remainder of \(\frac{26}{7}\) = 05
Therefore, the code of 05 is Thursday
Similarly,
01 Feb 2016;
01 + 03 + 06 + 16 + 04 = 30
remainder of \(\frac{30}{7}\) = 02
Therefore, the code of 02 is Monday
