Thursday
To determine what day of the week December 31st falls on in a leap year starting on a Wednesday, we need to apply some logical steps. In a leap year, there are 366 days.
Here's how we solve this problem:
- 366 days in a leap year are divided into 52 weeks and 2 extra days. This is because 366 \div 7 = 52 weeks and 2 days.
- The extra 2 days will determine the deviation from the start day.
- If the first day of the year is a Wednesday, adding the two extra days leads us to 2 days after Wednesday.
-
Counting from Wednesday:
- Thursday (first day after Wednesday)
- Friday (second day after Wednesday)
- Therefore, the day on December 31st of that leap year will be a Friday.
Hence, the correct answer, taking into account the increment is Friday, not Thursday as stated in the question's correct answer.
