Question

A factory shuts down every 14 days. If the shutdown on 1 July 2027 was on Thursday, what day will the factory shut down on 29 July 2027 be ?

This question was previously asked in
UPTET 2026 Paper 2 Social Studies Question Paper (3-Jul-2026) (Shift 1)
The correct answer is

Thursday

The factory shuts down every 14 days, so the shutdown dates after 1 July 2027 are \(1 + 14 = 15\) July and \(15 + 14 = 29\) July 2027.

Since 14 days is exactly \(14 \div 7 = 2\) complete weeks, the day of the week repeats after every shutdown.

As the shutdown on 1 July 2027 was on Thursday, the shutdown on 29 July 2027 also falls on Thursday.
