here in this questions the day is starting from 1 Jan 2004...means it will include here 2 days extra because this leap year will contain Feb months but 2005 will contain 0 day extra bcz here it is asked only upto jan 2005 not feb 2005.....
so.....2004----2 days extra
.........2005.....0 days extra
.......so total extra days=2......that means Thursday+2=Saturday - 5 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(0)
