Question

• A. Thursday
• B. Tuesday
• C. Wednesday
• D. Friday

Answer 1

Answer:

D. Friday

The 17th of that month will be a Friday.

1. Find the day of the 8th: "3 days after Sunday" is Wednesday (Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday). So, the 8th is a Wednesday.

2. Calculate the difference: The difference between the 17th and the 8th is 9 days ($17 - 8 = 9$).

3. Find the remaining days: Dividing 9 days by 7 gives a remainder of 2 days (1 week + 2 days).

4. Add the remaining days: Count 2 days forward from Wednesday, which gives you Friday.
