Vihan was born on a Saturday. Punit was born 287 days after Vihan. On which day of the week was Punit born?
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 3
The correct answer is Option (3) → Saturday
Every 7 days bring back the same day of the week, so only the remainder of the number of days on division by 7 moves the day.
\(287=41\times7\), so 287 days are 41 whole weeks with no day left over
So Punit was born on the same day as Vihan, a Saturday
