Meera opened her bakery on Monday, 12th August 2019. On which day of the week did the bakery complete its first year, on 12th August 2020?
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 2
The correct answer is Option (2) → Wednesday
A date moves one day forward in the week after 365 days and two days forward after 366 days, that is when a 29th February falls in between.
From 12 August 2019 to 12 August 2020 the 29th February 2020 falls in between, so there are 366 days
\(366=52\times7+2\), so 2 odd days
Monday + 2 = Wednesday
Tuesday would be the answer only for a 365-day gap
