• From the given data we can observe that the worker repeats same cycle after every 9 days(i.e starts work on 10th day after taking rest). So he will start his work on completion of 12 complete cycles (i.e 12*9=108days). the no. of odd days is 108%7=3. So Monday +3= Thursday. This means he again start his work on Thursday completing 12 full cycles. Therefore Wednesday will be his 12th rest day.

• ans is wednesday.
  it is right that 12*9=108
  then divide 108 by 7, we get 3 as remender.
  now count 3 days after sunday because he started working on monday.

• 1st rest= monday+2 = monday+1*2=wednesday
  2nd rest= wednesday+2= monday+4= monday+2*2=Friday
  3rd rest= Friday+2= monday+6= monday+3*2=Sunday
  Therefore,
  12th rest= monday+12*2= monday+24= monday+24%7= monday+3= Thursday
