On What dates of March 2005 did Friday fall?

  • A.5th, 12th, 17th and 24th
  • B.4th, 11th, 18th and 25th
  • C.6th, 13th, 20th and 27th
  • D.7th, 14th, 21th and 28th

Answer: B

To begin with we discover the day on 1.3.2005.
1.3.2005= (2004 year+ period from 1.1.2005 to 1.3.2005
Odd days in 1600 years = 0
Odd days in 400 years = 0
4 years = (1 jump year+ 3 normal years)
= (1*2+3*1) odd days = 5 odd days. 
Jan + Feb + March
31 + 28 + 1 = 60 days = (8 weeks +4 days)=4 odd days.
∴ Total number of odd days = (0+0+5+4) =9=2 odd days.
∴ 1.3.2005 was Tuesday. So, Friday lies on 4.3.2005.
Thus, Friday lies on 4th, 11th, 18th and 25th of March, 2005.
