If 1st July 2022 was Sunday, then what was the day on 1st November 2022?

Thursday

The correct answer is Option (3) → Thursday

1. Calculate the Total Number of Days

We count the days from July 1st to November 1st:

• Remaining days in July: 30 days (July has 31 days, so $31 - 1 = 30$)
• August: 31 days
• September: 30 days
• October: 31 days
• November: 1 day (the target date)

Total days = $30 + 31 + 30 + 31 + 1 = \mathbf{123 \text{ days}}$

2. Calculate the "Odd Days"

Since the days of the week repeat every 7 days, we divide the total number of days by 7 to find the remainder (odd days):

$123 \div 7 = 17 \text{ weeks and } \mathbf{4 \text{ days remainder}}$

3. Determine the Day

Now, we add the 4 odd days to the starting day (Sunday):

1. Sunday + 1 day = Monday
2. Sunday + 2 days = Tuesday
3. Sunday + 3 days = Wednesday
4. Sunday + 4 days = Thursday

Correct Answer: Thursday
