4 Thursdays and 4 sundays only there in the month.
so , if the month starts with Thursday or sunday it leads to 5 days in that month. so it cant be sunday or Thursday.

If it starts with Monday - then it will be 4 full weeks (4 *7=28 days).
again 5 th cycle - Monday,tuesday , Wednesday = (28 +3 days = 31 days )

YOUR ANSWER IS MONDAY

NUKALA SUSHMA  (8 years ago)

From the given data answer could not be either sunday or thursday
because if
jan 1st is sunday we get
jan 8 is sun
jan 15 is sun
jan 22 is sun
jan 29 is sun
so we will get 5 sun which is wrong as per the question
if this process is applied to all the days of a week we get 4 sun and 4 thu when we start jan 1st with monday

Is this solution Helpfull? Yes (2) | No
