Question

Today is Thursday. The day after $ 59 $ days will be?
A.Sunday
B.Tuesday
C.Wednesday
D.Monday

Answer 1

Hint: Here first of all we will convert the number of days in the form of sum of number of weeks and the remaining days. Then will follow the instructions and count the day given that today is Thursday. We know that Monday is repeated after seven days. And likewise all the days are repeated after seven days.

Complete step-by-step answer:
We know that there are seven days in a week. And each individual day is repeated after seven days.
To know the day after $ 59 $ days, divide $ 59 $ by $ 7 $ days.
 $ = \dfrac{{59}}{7} $
We get $ 3 $ remainder.
 $ 59 $ Days are equal to $ 8 $ weeks and $ 3 $ odd days.
Therefore, if today is Thursday, then after $ 59 $ days, then it will be
 $ = $ Thursday $ + \,3 $ odd days
Therefore, count three days after Thursday.
 $ = $ Sunday
Hence, from the given multiple choices, the option A is the correct answer.
So, the correct answer is “Option A”.

Note: The same things can be observed in the calendar that a week has seven days and each day is repeated after seven days. Always remember the basic conversational relation between the different terms. Like week and days, days and months and also the number of days in the year and the leap year. Conversional relation is the most important and the basic relation required for the accurate and an efficient answer.
Leap year is the year in which there is an added day in the year. One leap year is equal to $ 366 $ days.
