Correct Answer - Option 3 : Wednesday

Given:

January 5, 1991, was a Sunday

Calculation:

As 1991 is an ordinary year

So, the total number of odd days in 1991 = 1

5 January 1992 was one day after Sunday, i.e., Monday

Now, in January 1992, there are 26 days remaining (31 - 5), i.e., 5 odd days (26 ÷ 7 = 3 weeks and 5 days)

In February 1992, there are 29 days, i.e., 1 odd day (29 ÷ 7 = 4 weeks and 1 day)

In March 1992, there are 3 odd days (Up to 3 march)

The total number of odd days after 5 January 1992 till 5 March 1992 is 5 + 1 + 3 = 9 odd days which is equal to 2 odd days.

5 March 1992 was 2 days after Monday, i.e., Wednesday. 

∴ Wednesday was the day on March 3, 1992.
