Question 76

MediumOriginal question

Republic Day, 26 January 2027, falls on a Tuesday. A school holds its annual day on 15 March 2027 and its sports day 100 days after Republic Day. 2027 is not a leap year.

CorrectNot quiteAnswer D

Correct answer: D

Explanation

  1. 48=7×6+648 = 7 \times 6 + 6, so 48 days later is 6 days on in the week.

  2. Six days after Tuesday is Monday.

Worth noting

The day before counts 26 January itself among the 48 days; whole weeks change nothing, only the remainder 6 matters.
