If 14 November 1989 was a Tuesday, then what was the day of the week on 26 April 2013?

  1. A. Saturday
  2. B. Friday ✓
  3. C. Sunday
  4. D. Thursday

Correct Answer: B. Friday

Explanation

From 14 Nov 1989 to 14 Nov 2012 is 23 years, including 6 leap years. Odd days = 23 + 6 = 29 \equiv 1 odd day. So 14 Nov 2012 is Wednesday. Days from 14 Nov 2012 to 26 April 2013 = 16 (Nov) + 31 (Dec) + 31 (Jan) + 28 (Feb) + 31 (Mar) + 26 (Apr) = 163 days. 163 \div 7 leaves a remainder of 2. Wednesday + 2 days = Friday.
