EXPLAINATION
If the Nth year is a non-leap year, then 320th day of year N to 206th day of year N+1 is [(365
– 320) + 206] = 251 days i.e. 35 weeks + 6 days. But this will not make the two days to be
Thursday.
Thus, the Nth year has to be a leap year. In this case 320th day of year N to 206th day of year
N+1 is [(366 – 320) + 206) = 252 days i.e. 36 weeks. Hence both days will be same day of the
week i.e. Thursday as given by the data.
168th day of N-1 year to 320th day of N year is [(365 – 168) + 320) = 517 days i.e. 73 weeks +
6 days. Thus, if the 320th day is Thursday, then the 168th day of year will be Friday,

- Option: A ( Friday )
the info given about Nth and N+1 year to judge whether the year is leap year or non leap year
then between 206th day and 320th day of year N+1 there are 2 odd days ( 320-206 = 16 weeks and 2 odd days) so on 320th day of year N+1 its Saturday now in we can say that N is a leap year because of 2 odd days in N and N+1 .
taking N and N-1 in consideration
320th day of N-1 is wednesday and 168th day of N-1 will be friday as there are 5 odd days in between.... - 9 years agoHelpfull: Yes(11) No(2)
- friday.
if we consider Nth year to be a leap year..only then 206th day of year N+1 is a thursday...((366-320)+206)/7...therefore N-1 year cant be a leap year..therefore (365-168)+320=517days..when divided by 7 gives 6 as reminded..which turns out to be friday
