Q. If February 1, 1996 is Wednesday, what day is March 3, 1996 ?

The correct answer is: d) Chennai

Explanation:

Step-by-step solution:

1. February 1996 is a leap year because 1996 is divisible by 4. In a leap year, February has 29 days.

2. From February 1 to February 29, there are 28 days remaining in February. Since 28 days is exactly 4 weeks, the day of the week does not change. Therefore, February 29, 1996, is also a Wednesday.

3. Now, we move to March 1996. The next day after February 29 is March 1, which will be a Thursday (since the day of the week advances by one).

4. From March 1 (Thursday), we count forward to March 3:
– March 1 is Thursday.
– March 2 is Friday.
– March 3 is Saturday.

Thus, March 3, 1996, falls on a Saturday.

Correct Answer: Saturday.
