Answer 1

The Correct Option is D

Step 1: The year 1979 is not a leap year.
Step 2: Using the calendar or odd-days method, we calculate the total number of odd days up to 13 February 1979.
Step 3: After accounting for the days of years and months preceding 13 February 1979, the resulting day corresponds to Wednesday.
