If Republic day was celebrated in 1996 on Friday. On which day 2000 independence day was celebrated?

Tuesday

The correct answer is Option (4) → Tuesday

The year 1996 was a Leap Year.

Number of days remaining in the 1996

=366−26=340 ÷ 7

=48 weeks 4 odd days

1997, 1998 and 1999 together have 3 odd days.
2000 was a Leap Year

Days upto 15th August 2000

31+29+31+30+31+30+31+15=228days

228 ÷ 7= 32weeks 4 odd days

Now, total number of odd days = 4+3+4 = 11

11 ÷  7 = 1 week 4 odd days

15th August 2000 was 4 days beyond Friday, i.e., Tuesday.
