Q:

# What was the day on 31st Dec,2011 ?

 A) Monday B) Saturday C) Sunday D) Friday

Explanation:

31st Dec, 2011 = (2010 years + Period from 1.1.2011 to 31.12.2011)

Odd days in 2000 years = 0

10 years has 2 leap years + 8 ordinary years.

Number of odd days in 10 years ( 2 x 2 + 8) = 5 odd days.

31st,Dec => complete year of 2011 (non-leap year) = 1 odd day.

Total number of odd days = (0 + 5 + 1) = 6.

Given day is saturday.

Q:

What is two weeks from today?

 A) same day B) previous day C) next day D) None

Explanation:

We know that the day repeats every 7 days, 14 days, 21 days,...

So if today is Monday, after 7 days it is again Monday, after 14 days again it is Monday.

Hence, after 2 weeks i.e, 14 days the day repeats and is the same day.

Q:

How old are you if you are born in 1995?

 A) 22 B) 23 C) 24 D) 25

Explanation:

Calculating Age has 2 conditions. Let your Birthday is on January 1st.

1. If the month in which you are born is completed in the present year i.e, your birthday, then

Your Age = Present year - Year you are born

As of now, present year = 2018

i.e, Age = 2018 - 1995 = 23 years.

2. If the month in which you are born is not completed in the present year i.e, your birthday, then

Your Age = Last year - Year you are born

As of now, present year = 2018

i.e, Age = 2017 - 1995 = 22 years.

Q:

The day before yesterday, I was 25 years old, and next year I will turn 28. How is it possible?

On carefully inspecting this question, one can understand that there are two days which are important and these are:

A. My Birthday.

B. The day when I am making this statement.

If you think for a while, you will understand that such statements can be made only around the year’s end. So, if my birthday is on 31 December, then I will be making this statement on 1 January.

I will further explain using the following example:

1. Consider that today is 01 January 2017.

2. Then, the day before yesterday was 30 December 2016 and according to the question I was 25 then.

3. Yesterday was 31 December 2016, which happens to be my birthday too (Woohoo!), and my age increases by one to become 26.

4. I will turn 27 on my birthday this year (31 December 2017).

5. I will turn 28 on my birthday next year (31 December 2018).

Now, if you read the question again, it will make more sense:

The day before yesterday(30 December 2016), I was 25 years old and next year(31 December 2018) I will be 28.

Q:

The calendar for the year 2018 will be the same for the year

 A) 2023 B) 2027 C) 2029 D) 2022

Explanation:

How to find the years which have the same Calendars :

Leap year calendar repeats every 28 years.

Here 28 is distributed as 6 + 11 + 11.

Rules:

a) If given year is at 1st position after Leap year then next repeated calendar year is Givenyear+6.

b) If given year is at 2nd position after Leap year then next repeated calendar year is Givenyear+11.

c) If given year is at 3rd position after Leap year then next repeated calendar year is Givenyear+11.

Now, the given year is 2018

We know that 2016 is a Leap year.

2016    2017    2018    2019  2020

Lp Y      1st     2nd      3rd     Lp Y

Here 2018 is at 2 nd position after the Leap year.

According to rule b) the calendar of 2018 is repeated for the year is 2018 + 11 = 2029.

Q:

How many days in 4 years?

 A) 1460 B) 1461 C) 1462 D) 1459

Explanation:

Days in 4 years =>

Let the first year is Normal year i.e, its not Leap year. A Leap Years occurs once for every 4 years.

4 years => 365 + 365 + 365 + 366(Leap year)

4 years => 730 + 731 = 1461

Therefore, Number of Days in 4 Years = 1461 Days.

Q:

How many weekends in a year?

 A) 52 B) 53 C) 103 D) 104

Explanation:

In normal we have 104 Weekend Days.

We know that a Each normal year has 365 days or 52 weeks plus one day, and each week has two weekend days, which means there are approximately 104 weekend days each year.
Whereas in a leap year we have 366 days it adds one more day to the year. And what makes the change is the starting day of the year.

Q:

What is 90 days from today?

Hints : Today is 20th January 2017, Sunday

 A) 18th April, Friday B) 20th April, Saturday C) 21th April, Sunday D) 19th April, Saturday

Explanation:

Given Today is 20th January 2017, Sunday

In january, we have 31 days

February - 28 days (Non leap year)

March - 31 days

April - 30 days

=> Remaining days => 31 - 20 = 11 in Jan

+ 28 in Feb + 31 in Mar = 11 + 28 + 31 = 70 days

More 20 days to complete 90 days => upto 20th April

Therefore, after 90 days from today i.e, 20th Jan 2017 is 20th Apr 2017.

Now, the day of the week will be

90/7 => Remainder '6'

As the day starts with '0' on sunday

6 => Saturday.

Required day is 20th April, Saturday.
