The following table shows the number of visitors to a library in the first six days of a week :

DaysNumber of visitors
Monday86
Tuesday114
Wednesday141
Thursday95
Friday124
Saturday151

On which day, the number of visitors to the library was 29 more than its previous day?

  • A.Tuesday
  • B.Wednesday
  • C.Friday
  • D.Saturday

Answer: C

The day is Friday.

Compare each day with the day before it:

  • Tuesday: 114 − 86 = 28
  • Wednesday: 141 − 114 = 27
  • Thursday: 95 − 141, a fall
  • Friday: 124 − 95 = 29
  • Saturday: 151 − 124 = 27

Only Friday is exactly 29 more than the previous day. Tuesday (28) is the near miss, and Wednesday and Saturday are each 27 more.
