    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).
