Discussion
A person was born on the fifth Monday of February in a particular year.
Which one of the following statements is correct based on the above information?
Answer: A
The correct statement is that 2nd February of that year is a Tuesday.
February can have a fifth Monday only in a leap year in which 1 February is a Monday. The Mondays then fall on the 1st, 8th, 15th, 22nd and 29th, and the fifth one is 29 February, the person's birthday. So 2 February is a Tuesday.
The other statements fail. With 1 February a Monday, the month starts on Monday, not Sunday, and its Sundays are the 7th, 14th, 21st and 28th, only four. The Mondays have dates 1, 8, 15, 22 and 29, mostly odd, so they do not all have even dates.
