Solution

Find the least number of days.

We can determine the least number of days by using the concept of time and work.

  1. From the given, day after the day before yesterday is yesterday.
  2. Now, before five days, yesterday was Thursday. So before five days, it was Friday, which means that, Today is Wednesday.
  3. Now, Yesterday is three days before the day after tomorrow.
  4. It is on Monday that we can say 'Yesterday was Sunday".
  5. So, from today that is Wednesday, Monday is two days ago.

Therefore, two days ago from today Sunday was three days before the day after tomorrow.
