    A) Monday          

    B)          Tuesday

    C) Thursday      

    D)          Friday

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

        1600 years have 0 odd day and 300 years have 1 odd day. 49 years contain 12 leap years and 37 ordinary years and therefore (24 +37) odd days i.e., 5 odd days i.e., 1949 years contain (0 + 1 + 5) or 6 odd days. 26 days of January contain 5 odd days. Total odd days = (6 + 5) = 11 or 4 odd days. So, the day was Thursday.
