Mathematical Aptitude MCQ - Calendar Questions
There is increase of 1 day (odd day) in the subsequent
year. In case of a leap year (if the day is after February),
then there will be increase of two days.
Although 1996 is a leap year, the day in question is in January, so there will be increase of one day. Thus, January 1, 1996 is Monday.
Although 1996 is a leap year, the day in question is in January, so there will be increase of one day. Thus, January 1, 1996 is Monday.
Although 1980 is a leap year, it would not have any
impact on the calculation as the date in the question is
in January month (and before 28th February). Thus, it
is assumed as a normal year. There is a gain of one day
in the next year. However, here, we will do backward
calculation, subtract 1 day from the year 1980. If it was
Saturday, then the same day in the previous year was
to be Friday
October has 31 days. 1st, 8th, 15th, 22nd and 29th
dates of October will be Mondays. Thus, 1st November
will be a Thursday.
First Wednesday of the month will be on 4th day of the
month, 2nd will be on 11th, 3rd Wednesday on 18th,
and 4th Wednesday on 25th. Now, three days after
25th, which means 25 + 4 = 29th day of the month.
