If today is Saturday then what will be the day on 363rd day?
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 3
The correct answer is Option (3) → Thursday
The days of the week repeat every 7 days, so only the days left over after whole weeks move the weekday on. Counting today, Saturday, as the 1st day, the 363rd day comes 362 days after today.
\(362=51\times7+5\): 51 full weeks and 5 days
After 51 full weeks it is Saturday again
5 more days: Sunday, Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday
Note: The question does not say whether today is counted as the 1st day. The two readings give different days:
Today as the 1st day — the 363rd day is 362 days after today: Thursday, Option (3), the answer given by NTA.
Tomorrow as the 1st day — the 363rd day is 363 days after today (51 weeks and 6 days): Friday, Option (4).
