Correct Answer:

Explanation:

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 }

25 March 1995;

25 + 04 + 0 + 95 + 23 = 147

Therefore, the code of 07 is Saturday

 

Similarly,

12 Dec 1997;

12 + 06 + 0 + 97 + 24 = 139

remainder of \(\frac{139}{7}\) = 06

Therefore, the code of 01 is Friday
