Today is Wednesday. What would be the day after 61 days?
Show Hint
To find the day of the week after 'n' days, calculate the number of odd days by finding the remainder when 'n' is divided by 7 (i.e., n mod 7). Add this remainder to the current day to get the future day.

The Correct Option is B
Solution and Explanation
The days of the week repeat in a cycle of 7. To find the day after 61 days, we need to find the number of odd days in this period. We do this by dividing the total number of days by 7 and finding the remainder.
\[ 61 \div 7 \]
\[ 61 = 7 \times 8 + 5 \]
The remainder is 5. This means that the day after 61 days will be 5 days after Wednesday.
Let's count:
Wednesday + 1 day = Thursday
Wednesday + 2 days = Friday
Wednesday + 3 days = Saturday
Wednesday + 4 days = Sunday
Wednesday + 5 days = Monday
Alternatively, 5 days after is the same as 2 days before (since 5-7 = -2). Wednesday - 2 days = Monday.
So, the day will be Monday.

- Dynamic RAM (DRAM) stores each bit of data in a separate capacitor. Due to leakage, the stored charge tends to dissipate over time and needs to be refreshed periodically. Consider the following statements: \[\begin{array}{rl} \bullet & \text{P: DRAM requires refreshing because it uses capacitors to store bits.} \\ \bullet & \text{Q: SRAM does not require refreshing because it uses flip-flops instead of capacitors.} \\ \bullet & \text{R: DRAM is faster than SRAM because it needs less frequent access.} \\ \bullet & \text{S: DRAM is more suitable for main memory than SRAM due to its density.} \\ \end{array}\]
