Question

If 12^th September 2014 is a Tuesday. What day of the week would be on 25^th September 2021?
1. Sunday
2. Friday
3. Wednesday
4. Tuesday

Answer 1

Correct Answer - Option 3 : Wednesday

We know 12^th September 2014 = Tuesday

Also, every year a date get shifts forward to the next day. That means after 7 years, 12^th September would shift ahead by 7 days. Also, there would be a leap year and that would result in 2 days’ shift.

Leap years between 2014 to 2021 = 2016, and 2020

⇒ Day on 12^th September 2021 = Tuesday + 7 + 2(for leap years)

⇒ Tuesday + 9 days = ⇒ Tuesday + remainder of 9/7

⇒ Tuesday + 2 days = Thursday

Therefore, 12^th September 2021 = Thursday

⇒ 25^th September 2021 = 12^th September 2021 + 13 days

⇒ Thursday + 13 days = Thursday + remainder of 13/7

⇒ Thursday + 6 days = Wednesday

Hence, Wednesday is the correct answer.
