Question

Clock & Calendars: If today is Monday, what day of the week will it be after 100 days?

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

Hint:

For clock and calendar problems, divide the total number of days by 7 and use the remainder to calculate the day of the week.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is B

The number of days in a week is 7. To find the day of the week after 100 days, divide 100 by 7 and find the remainder: \[ 100 \div 7 = 14 \text{ weeks} \text{ with a remainder of } 2 \] This means that 100 days is equivalent to 14 full weeks and 2 extra days. If today is Monday, then 2 days after Monday is Wednesday. Answer: Therefore, the day of the week after 100 days is Wednesday. So, the correct answer is option (2).
