If 15 April falls on a Monday, what day is 1 May of the same year?

  • A. Monday
  • B. Tuesday
  • C. Wednesday
  • D. Thursday

Explanation

April has 30 days, so 1 May is 16 days after 15 April, and 16 divided by 7 leaves a remainder of 2, moving the day forward from Monday to Wednesday. Counting the exact gap in days before taking the remainder is essential. Errors usually come from miscounting the length of the month.
