here i am posting a trick to find out the day of any date

Engineering Entrance , JEE Main , JEE Advanced , academic , Miscellaneous

Day of the Date

Day of the Week:

January has 31 days. It means that every date in February will be 3 days later than the same date in January(28 is 4 weeks exactly). The below table is calculated in such a way. Remember this table which will help you to calculate.

January     0

February    3

March       3

April        6

May         1

June        4

July       6

August       2

September 5

October      0

November    3

December    5

Step1: Ask for the Date. Ex: 23rd June 1986

Step2: Number of the month on the list, June is 4.

Step3: Take the date of the month, that is 23

Step4: Take the last 2 digits of the year, that is 86.

Step5: Find out the number of leap years. Divide the last 2 digits of the year by 4, 86 divide by 4 is 21.

Step6: Now add all the 4 numbers: 4 + 23 + 86 + 21 = 134.

Step7: Divide 134 by 7 = 19 remainder 1.

The reminder tells you the day.

Sunday     0

Monday     1

Tuesday     2

Wednesday     3

Thursday     4

Friday     5

Saturday     6

Answer: Monday
