Question

My brother is 562 days older to me while my sister is 75 weeks older to him. If my sister was born on Tuesday, on which day was I born?

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

Answer 1

Answer:

B. Thursday

To find the day you were born, we need to calculate the total number of days between your sister's birth and yours.

1. Calculate the total

• Sister to Brother: 75 weeks
  Since weeks consist of exactly 7 days, any number of full weeks results in the same day of the week.
  $75 \text{ weeks} \times 7 \text{ days} = 525 \text{ days}$.

• Brother to You: 562 days

• Total days from Sister to You: $525 + 562 = 1087 \text{ days}$.

2. Find the remainder (Odd days)

To find the day of the week, divide the total days by 7 and find the remainder:
$1087 \div 7 = 155$ weeks and 2 days remaining.

3. Determine the day

• Your sister was born on a Tuesday.

• Since you are younger, we move forward in time by the number of remaining days (2 days).

• Tuesday + 2 days = Thursday.

Final Answer: You were born on a Thursday.
