• C. Saturday
• D. Sunday

Answer 1

Answer:

C. Saturday

Their 10th wedding anniversary will be on a Saturday.

1. Total Years Elapsed: From 25th April 2016 to 25th April 2026 is exactly 10 years.

2. Count the Leap Years: Between 2016 and 2026, there are 2 leap years that add an extra day to the calendar:

   • 2020

   • 2024

   • (Note: The leap day of 2016 already passed in February before their wedding, so it is not counted).

3. Calculate Total Odd Days:

   • 10 ordinary days (1 day per year) + 2 extra days (for the leap years) = 12 total odd days.

4. Divide by Days of the Week: 12 days ÷ 7 = 1 week and 5 odd days remainder.

5. Shift the Day: Counting 5 days forward from Monday (Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday) brings you to Saturday.
