A sample question from this test
What day of the week was 6 January 2027?
- Saturday
- Sunday
- Wednesday
- Tuesday
Answer: C. Wednesday. 6 January 2027 fell on a Wednesday. (Counting odd days: an ordinary year has 1 odd day and a leap year has 2.)
How to approach this test
Count odd days: 7 days make a week, so only the remainder after dividing the number of days by 7 shifts the weekday.
