The Day of the Week on 10th March 1996

To determine the day of the week on 10th March 1996, we can use a method called Zeller's Congruence. Zeller's Congruence is an algorithm devised by Christian Zeller to calculate the day of the week for any given date.

Zeller's Congruence Algorithm:

Zeller's Congruence algorithm uses the following formula:

\[ h = (q + \frac{13(m+1)}{5} + K + \frac{K}{4} + \frac{J}{4} - 2J) \% 7 \]

Where:
- h is the day of the week (0 = Saturday, 1 = Sunday, 2 = Monday, ..., 6 = Friday)
- q is the day of the month
- m is the month (3 = March, 4 = April, ..., 12 = December) - We subtract 3 from the month value as Zeller's Congruence considers March as the first month of the year.
- K is the year of the century (year % 100)
- J is the zero-based century (actually \(\lfloor year/100 \rfloor)\)

Calculating the Day of the Week for 10th March 1996:

Let's apply Zeller's Congruence to calculate the day of the week for 10th March 1996.

q = 10
m = 3 - 3 = 0
K = 96
J = \(\lfloor \frac{19}{100} \rfloor\) = 19

Substituting the values into the formula:

\[ h = (10 + \frac{13(0+1)}{5} + 96 + \frac{96}{4} + \frac{19}{4} - 2(19)) \% 7 \]

Simplifying the equation:

\[ h = (10 + \frac{13}{5} + 96 + 24 + 4 - 38) \% 7 \]
\[ h = (10 + 2 + 96 + 24 + 4 - 38) \% 7 \]
\[ h = 98 \% 7 \]
\[ h = 0 \]

Therefore, the remainder of 0 indicates that the day of the week for 10th March 1996 is Saturday.

Conclusion:

Hence, the correct answer is option 'c) Saturday'.
