Question

If the starting day of a month is Friday, what will be the frequency of number of Saturdays in that month assuming it is not February?

• A. 3
• B. 4
• C. 5
• D. 6

Answer 1

The correct option is C 5

$\begin{array}{cc}\text{Fridays}& \text{Saturdays}\\ \text{Day 1 is Friday}& \text{Day 2 is a Saturday}\\ \text{Day 8 is a Friday}& \text{Day 9 is a Saturday}\\ \text{Day 15 is a Friday}& \text{Day 16 is a Saturday}\\ \text{Day 22 is a Friday}& \text{Day 23 is a Saturday}\\ \text{Day 29 is a Friday}& \text{Day 30 is a Saturday}\end{array}$

So, the maximum number of Saturdays we can have in the month is 5 , if the starting day of a month is Friday.
