| (C) | 61 days from today | (III) | Thursday |
| (D) | 365 days from today | (IV) | Saturday |
Choose the correct answer from the options given below:
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 2
The correct answer is Option (2) → (A)-(II), (B)-(III), (C)-(IV), (D)-(I)
The days of the week repeat every 7 days, so only the number of days modulo 7 matters. That remainder is counted forward from Monday.
(A) 30 days from today
This matches (II) Wednesday.
\(30 = 7 \times 4 + 2\), and Monday + 2 days = Wednesday
(B) 45 days from today
This matches (III) Thursday.
\(45 = 7 \times 6 + 3\), and Monday + 3 days = Thursday
(C) 61 days from today
This matches (IV) Saturday.
\(61 = 7 \times 8 + 5\), and Monday + 5 days = Saturday
(D) 365 days from today
This matches (I) Tuesday.
\(365 = 7 \times 52 + 1\), and Monday + 1 day = Tuesday
