Question

The day after tomorrow will be X-mas day. What will be the day on New Year's Day if today is Monday?

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

Answer 1

The correct option is C Wednesday

Since X-mas day falls on ${25}^{th}$ December
$\therefore$ Today will be ${23}^{rd}$ December
Hence, on ${23}^{rd}$ December, it is Monday.
The no. of days between ${23}^{rd}$ December and $1^{st}$ January is $9$ days.
Dividing $9$ by $7$, we get $2$ as remainder.
So, it will be Wednesday on New Year's Day.
