If it was Wednesday on April 30 April, 2006. What will be the day on 2 October 2040?

Friday

\(\frac{Date + Month code + Century code + Century upper year + Quotient of Upper year/4}{7}\)

\(\frac{30+6+6+6+1}{7}\)

\(\frac{49}{7}\) =  Remainder 0 means Sunday but here Wednesday is given i.e. 3 days after.

We have to find out 02/10/2040

\(\frac{Date + Month code + Century code + Century upper year + Quotient of Upper year/4}{7}\)

\(\frac{2+0+6+40+10}{7}\)

\(\frac{58}{7}\) =  Remainder 2 means Tuesday

Therefore, 3 days after Tuesday is Friday which is the correct answer.
