If 1st July 2022 was Sunday, then what was the day on 1st November 2022?
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 3
The correct answer is Option (3) → Thursday
The weekday repeats every 7 days, so only the odd days, the days left over after whole weeks, move it forward. A month of 31 days is 4 weeks + 3 days, so the 1st of the next month falls 3 weekdays later. Taking 1st July 2022 as a Sunday:
July has 31 days, 3 odd days: 1st August is Sunday + 3 = Wednesday
August has 31 days, 3 odd days: 1st September is Wednesday + 3 = Saturday
September has 30 days, 2 odd days: 1st October is Saturday + 2 = Monday
October has 31 days, 3 odd days: 1st November is Monday + 3 = Thursday
