12th feb 1962 has 1961 years, 1 month and 12 days. Now 1600 years have no odd days. 300 years have 1 odd day. The remaining 61 years contain 15 leap years and 46 ordinary years. The number of days in 61 years can be calculated as follows:
(15 × 366 + 46 × 365) days
= 22280 days = 22280/7 = 3182 weeks and 6 odd days. It means 61 years contain 6 odd days.
1 month and 12 days = 43 days = 6 weeks + 1 day = 1 odd day so 1 + 6 + 1 = 8. 8 odd days means 7 + 1 which is 1 odd day. It means that day is Monday. Hence option C is correct.
Q 2 - How many days are there in between the dates 21st April and 11th June?
Here both the given dates are not inclusive. April has 30 days so 9 days remain in April. May has 31 days and 10 days of June. So, total 50 days are there.
Q 3 - Today is Monday, what will be the day after 66 days?
Every day of the week is repeated after 7 days. Hence, it will be Monday again after 63 days because 9 × 7 = 63. After 3 days, it will be Thursday. Hence, option A is correct.
Q 4 - Find the day of the week on 27th January 1959.
27th January 1959 has 1958 years, 0 months and 27 days. Now 1600 years have no odd days and 300 years have one odd day. The rest 58 years contain 14 leap years and 44 ordinary years so the number of days can be calculated as follows:
(14 × 366 + 44 × 365) days
= 21184 days = 21184/7 = 3026 weeks and 2 days. It means 58 years contain 2 odd days.
The remaining 0 months and 27 days = 27 days = 3 weeks + 6 odd days = 1 + 6 + 2 = 9. 9 odd days means it is 7 + 2 = 9 or 2 odd days. That day is Tuesday. Hence option C is correct.
Q 5 - Find the day of the week on 29th December 1979.
Here both dates are included so we will take 6 days from September, 31 days from October and 12 days from November which give the total ofl 49 days. Hence, option D is correct.
Here both the given dates are not inclusive. So we will take 15 days from June, 31 days from July, 31 days from August, 30 days from September, 31 days from October, 30 days from November and 19 days from December. Total number of days = 15 + 31 + 31 + 30 + 31 + 30 + 19 = 187 days.
Q 10 - Find the day of the week on 11th June 2004.
