Answer 2

Answer:

It must be Tuesday.

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 365 days in non leap year, so 365/7 gives out the remainder of 1, which means after a non-leap year, same date results in one day ahead of previous year, for eg. If it was Tuesday on 1 March, 2018   it would be Wednesday on 1 March, 2019.

In Leap Year though, 366/7 gives out remainder of 2, so we have to go 2 days ahead.

In this ques, u have to reverse backwards, u see,

1 day lowered by 1985

2 days lowered by 1984(leap)

1 day lowered by 1983

So, answer is Tuesday!!
