Question

If 2 August 2016 is a Tuesday, then what will the day of the week on 19 October 2020?

A.

Saturday

B.

Wednesday

C.

Monday

D.

Thursday

Correct option is C

Given 2 August 2016 is a Tuesday, then19 October 2020 ?
2017, 2018, 2019 (Normal years) → 3 odd days
2020 (Leap year) → 2 odd days
Total odd days = 3 + 2 = 5
Since 2 August 2016 was Tuesday, adding 5 days:
2 August 2020 = Tuesday + 5 = Sunday
Count the Odd Days from 2 August to 19 October
August (remaining days) = 31 - 2 = 29 days
September = 30 days
October (up to 19th) = 19 days
Total days = 29 + 30 + 19 = 78 days
78 ÷ 7 = remainder 1 day
So, 19 October 2020 = Sunday + 1 = Monday.
Thus, the correct option is (c).
