• C. $24$
• D. $21$

Answer 1

Answer: (C)

$24$

There are $30$ days in the month and $1^{st}$ day is a Monday. Thus, there are $4$ weeks and $2$ days which are Monday and Tuesday.
Given every Sunday and alternate Mondays is a holiday, thus there are

$4$ Sundays + $2$ Mondays = $6$ holidays.
Hence, total working days are $30-6=24$.
