Therefore 1st - wednesday
8th -wednesday
15th - wednesday
22nd wednesday
therefore on 26th it was sunday when he met his sister
The date on which Vivek met his sister was the 26th of the given month.
Given,
Vivek met his sister on Sunday, as he remembers.
It was after the 20th day of that month.
On 1st day of that month was Wednesday.
To find,
The date on which Vivek met his sister.
Solution,
Here, it is given that Vivek remembers meeting his sister on Sunday, and it was after the 20th of that month.
Also, 1st day of that month was Wednesday.
Now, it can be observed that a day repeats after a week, or, after 7 days.
So, we can say that the following dates of the given month were also on Wednesday:
1, 8, 15, 22, 29.
From the above dates, we can see that after Wednesday on 29th, next Sunday will be in the next month.
Besides, as 22 is Wednesday, 21 cannot be Sunday.
So, the required Sunday will be between the 22nd and 29th of the month.
Now, in a week, Sunday falls 4 days after Wednesday.
Thus, the required date = 22 + 4 = 26th.
Therefore, the date on which Vivek met his sister was the 26th of the given month.
