If today is Thursday, what will be the day on 363 days?a)Sundayb)Satur...
Understanding the problem:
The problem states that today is Thursday, and we need to determine the day of the week after 363 days. To solve this problem, we need to understand how the days of the week cycle and repeat.
Determining the cycle of days:
The days of the week follow a pattern where every 7 days, the week starts over. This means that after 7 days, the day of the week will be the same as the starting day. For example, if today is Thursday, after 7 days, it will be Thursday again.
Calculating the day after 363 days:
To find the day of the week after 363 days, we can divide 363 by 7 and observe the remainder. The remainder will give us the number of additional days beyond the complete cycles of 7 days.
Calculating the remainder:
363 divided by 7 is 51, with a remainder of 6. This means that after 51 complete cycles of 7 days, there are 6 additional days. Therefore, after 363 days, the day of the week will be 6 days ahead of the starting day.
Determining the day:
To determine the day of the week after 363 days, we need to add 6 days to the starting day, which is Thursday. Adding 6 days to Thursday gives us the next Tuesday.
Conclusion:
Therefore, after 363 days, the day of the week will be Tuesday. None of the given options (a, b, c) match the correct answer, so the correct answer is option 'D' (None of these).
