E.Friday

Answer 1

Hint: In order to solve the statement given, start with the three days after Saturday that is coming, then consider it equal to the day before the day before yesterday, then find the day before yesterday, then move on for find yesterday and similarly will get the day of today.

Complete answer:
We are given with a statement that the day before the day before yesterday is three days after Saturday. And, we need to find today.
Starting with listing the weekdays:
Saturday
Sunday
Monday
Tuesday
Wednesday
Thursday
Friday
Now, we have three days after Saturday, so that day will be “Tuesday”. And, it is the day before yesterday.
So, numerically written as:
The day before the day before yesterday $ = $ Tuesday.
So, from this the day before yesterday will be one day after the day before the day before yesterday.
So, numerically written:
The day before yesterday $ = $ Tuesday$ + $ 1 day $ = $ Wednesday.
Similarly, Yesterday becomes the one day after the day before yesterday, numerically written as:
The day of yesterday $ = $ Wednesday $ + $ 1 day $ = $ Thursday.
And, today will the one day after yesterday, so today will be:
The day of Today $ = $ Yesterday $ + $ 1 day $ = $ Thursday $ + $ 1 day $ = $ Friday.
Hence, Today’s day is Friday.
Hence, Option E is correct.

Note:
1.Yesterday means the day that is just before today, for example, if today is Monday yesterday was Sunday.
2.Similarly, Tomorrow is the day just after today. For example: if today is Friday, tomorrow will be Saturday.
