If 31 August 2008 was Sunday, then what was the day of the week on 30 August 2012? |
Monday Thursday Tuesday Wednesday |
Thursday |
Using Code Method :- \(\frac{Date+Month code+Year code+Last 2 digits of yr+Leap yrs till given yr}{7}\) (Note: Remainder of the above sum will be the code of week day}
31 Aug 2008; 31 + 03 + 06 + 08 + 02 = 50 remainder of \(\frac{50}{7}\) = 01 Therefore, the code of 01 is Sunday
Similarly, 30 Aug 2012; 30 + 03 + 06 + 12 + 03 = 54 remainder of \(\frac{54}{7}\) = 05 Therefore, the code of 05 is Thursday |
