Saturday

Correct Answer:

Friday

Explanation:

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 }

19 July 2000;

19 + 0 + 06 + 0 + 0 = 25

remainder of \(\frac{25}{7}\) = 04

Therefore, the code of 04 is Wednesday

 

Similarly,

15 July 2012;

15 + 05 + 06 + 12 + 03 = 41

remainder of \(\frac{41}{7}\) = 06

 

Therefore, the code of 06 is Friday
