Question

If it was Saturday on 17th December, 1982, then what will be the day on 22nd December, 1984?

• A. Monday
• B. Tuesday
• C. Wednesday
• D. Sunday

Answer 1

The correct option is D Sunday

$\because 1983$ contains $365$ days
$=52$ weeks $+1$ extra day
while $1984\left(leapyear\right)$ contains $366$ days
$=52$ weeks $+2$ extra days
$\because 17$ December $1982=$ Saturday
$\Rightarrow 17$ December $1983=$ Saturday $+1$ extra day $=$ Sunday
$\Rightarrow 17$ December $1984=$ Saturday $+2$ extra days $=$ Tuesday
$\therefore 22$ December $1984=$ Tuesday $+5$ extra days $=$ Sunday

Hence, option D.
