Options:

Sunday

Monday

Tuesday

Wednesday

Correct Answer:

Wednesday

Explanation:

The correct answer is Option (4) → Wednesday

Step 1: Find the day of 9th April

We are told:

9th April falls 2 days after a Monday.

  • Monday + 2 days = Wednesday

So, 9th April is Wednesday.

Step 2: Find the day of 30th April

  • April has 30 days
  • Number of days after 9th April till 30th April:

$30 - 9 = 21 \text{ days}$

  • 21 days = 3 full weeks → 21 ÷ 7 = 3 weeks → no extra days
  • So, the day of 30th April will be the same as 9th AprilWednesday
