In 1952 india republic day was celebrated on saturday which day of the weak was the independence day of the same year

Answer 1

Friday was the Independence day celebrated in 1952.

Answer 2

Friday was the day of the week on which the independence day of the same year fall.

Given:

In 1952 india republic day was celebrated on Saturday

To find:

Which day of the weak was the independence day of the same year?

Solution:

Republic Day is celebrated on 26 January, 1950

Independence Day is celebrated on 15 August

So, firstly we have to find total days from 26 Jan to 15 Aug.

We have to firstly find out if 1952 is a leap year or not to find the number of days in February.

We have to divide 52 by 4 to find if it is a leap year.

By dividing 52 by 4, no remainder is left, so it is a leap year

Days left in January = 31 - 26 = 5

Days in February = 29

Days in March = 31

Days in April = 30

Days in May = 31

Days in June = 30

Days in July = 31

Days in August till 15th = 15

Total days from 26th January to 15th August 1952 = Days left in January + Days in February + Days in March+ Days in April + Days in May + Days in June + Days in July + Days in August till 15th

= 5 + 29 + 31 + 30 + 31 + 30 + 31 + 15

= 202

Each week has 7 days, so we have to divide 202 by 7

By dividing 202 by 7, we have 6 as a remainder left.

Now, we have to add 6 to Saturday as we have started counting from Saturday

6 + Saturday = Friday.

Hence, on 15th August 1952, day is Friday.
