If 1st January 2020 is a Wednesday, then what will be the day of the week on 15th September 2020?

Solution

✅ Correct Option: 1

2020 is divisible by 44, so it is a leap year and February has 2929 days.


Days from 1st January to 15th September:

January (after the 1st) =30= 30

February to August =29+31+30+31+30+31+31=213= 29 + 31 + 30 + 31 + 30 + 31 + 31 = 213

September =15= 15

Total =30+213+15=258= 30 + 213 + 15 = 258 days


Every 77 days the weekday repeats, so only the remainder matters:

258=7×36+6258 = 7 \times 36 + 6

Remainder =6= 6


Moving 66 days ahead of Wednesday:

Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday, Monday, Tuesday

Therefore, 15th September 2020 is a Tuesday.
