If Tuesday falls on the fourth of a month then which day will fall three days after 24th of the same month?
1. Identify the Target Date: - The question asks for the day that is "three days after the 24th" of the month.
- Target Date = 24 + 3 = 27th of the month.
2. Find the Number of Days Between Dates: - We are given that the 4th of the month is a Tuesday.
- The number of days that have passed between the 4th and the 27th is 27 - 4 = 23 days.
3. Find the Odd Days and Final Day: - To find the shift in the day of the week, we find the remainder after dividing the total days by 7 (since the week repeats every 7 days).
- 23 ÷ 7 = 3 with a remainder of 2. These are the "odd days".
- This means the required day is 2 days after Tuesday.
- Tuesday + 2 days = Thursday.
Final Answer: The day will be Thursday.
