- The year 2004 is a leap year. So, it has 2 odd days.
But, Feb 2004 not included because we are calculating from March 2004 to March 2005. So it has 1 odd day only.
The day on 6th March, 2005 will be 1 day beyond the day on 6th March, 2004.
Given that, 6th March, 2005 is Monday.
6th March, 2004 is Sunday (1 day before to 6th March, 2005). - 9 years agoHelpfull: Yes(3) No(0)

- take 6th march 2004 that is to be found
2003-1600=403
split 403
403=400+3
400-> 0 odd days
3->3 odd days
odd days in 403= 0+3 =3
check 2004 is leap year
2004/4=reminder 0 so it is a leap year , if leap year feb has 29 days
jan + feb+ march= 31 days + 29 days +6 days (we have to find for 6th march so ) =66 days
66/7=reminder 3 odd days
6th march 2004 = odd day of 403 + odd days of 66
= 3+ 3
= 6
