Solution

The correct option is A Monday
15th June, 1998 = (Years + Period from 1.1.1998 to 29.5.2006)
Odd days in 1600 years = 0
Odd days in 300 years = 1
97 years has 24 leap years and 73 ordinary years.
Number of odd days in 97 years (24 x 2 + 73) = 121 = 2 odd days.
Jan (31) + Feb(28) + March (31) + April (30) + May(31) + June (15) = 166 days
168 days = 23 weeks + 5 days = 5 odd days.
Total number of odd days = (0 + 1 + 2 + 5) = 8.
Given day is a Monday.
