1. Prove that any date in March of a year is the same day of the week corresponding date in November that year.
March April May June July Aug. Sept. Oct.
31 + 30 + 31 + 30 + 31 + 31 + 30 + 31
= 241 days
= 35 weeks
= 0 odd day
Number of odd days during this period = 0.
Thus, 1st March of an year will be the same day as 1st November of that year. Hence, the result follows
Solution:
We will show that the number of odd days between last day of February and last day of October is zero.March April May June July Aug. Sept. Oct.
31 + 30 + 31 + 30 + 31 + 31 + 30 + 31
= 241 days
= 35 weeks
= 0 odd day
Number of odd days during this period = 0.
Thus, 1st March of an year will be the same day as 1st November of that year. Hence, the result follows
