The correct answer is
Saturday

The question asks to find the day of the week for 6th June 2015, given that 3rd February 2015 was a Tuesday.

Calculate Total Days Between Dates

First, calculate the total number of days between 3rd February 2015 and 6th June 2015.

  • The year 2015 is not a leap year, so February has 28 days.
  • Days remaining in February: $28 - 3 = 25$ days.
  • Days in March: 31 days.
  • Days in April: 30 days.
  • Days in May: 31 days.
  • Days passed in June: 6 days.
  • Total number of days = $25 (\text{Feb}) + 31 (\text{Mar}) + 30 (\text{Apr}) + 31 (\text{May}) + 6 (\text{Jun}) = 123$ days.

Determine Day of the Week

To find the day of the week, find the remainder when the total number of days is divided by 7.

  • Divide the total days by 7: $123 \div 7$.
  • Calculation: $123 = 7 \times 17 + 4$.
  • The remainder is 4.

The starting day (3rd February 2015) was a Tuesday. Add the remainder (4 days) to find the final day:

  • Tuesday + 1 day = Wednesday
  • Tuesday + 2 days = Thursday
  • Tuesday + 3 days = Friday
  • Tuesday + 4 days = Saturday

Therefore, 6th June 2015 was a Saturday.
