Answer - A
Explanation
27th dec 1985 has 1984 years, 11 months and 27 days. Now 1600 years have no odd days at all. One odd day is present in 300 years. 84 years have twenty one leap years and 63 ordinary years so the number of days can be calculated as follows −
(21 × 366 + 63 × 365) days
= (7686 + 22995) days
= 30681 days = 30681/7 = 4383 weeks. It means 84 years contain no odd days.
11 months and 27 days = 361 days = 51 weeks + 4 odd days. On calculation 4 + 1 = 5. 5 odd days means that day is Friday. Hence option A is correct.
Answer - A
Explanation
11th April 1980 has 1979 years, 3 months and 11 days. Now 1600 years have no odd days and 300 years have one odd day. 79 years contain 19 leap years and 60 ordinary years. The number of days of 79 years can be calculated as follows −
(19 × 366 + 60 × 365) days
= 28854 days = 28854/7 = 4122 weeks. It means 79 years contain no odd days.
3 months and 11 days = 102 days = 14 weeks + 4 days = 4 odd days. 4 + 1 = 5. 5 odd days means that day is Friday. Hence option A is correct.
Answer - B
Explanation
12th March 1950 has 1949 years, 2 months and 12 days. Now 1600 years have no odd days. 300 years have 1 odd day. 49 years contain 12 leap years and 37 ordinary years So number of days in 37 years can be calculated as follows:
(12 × 366 + 37 × 365) days
= 17897 days = 17897/7 = 2556 weeks and 5 odd days. It means 49 years contain 5 odd days.
2 months and 12 days = 71 days = 10 weeks + 1 odd day which means 1 + 5 + 1 = 7. 7 odd days means that day is Sunday. Hence option B is correct.
