Finding Wednesdays in April 2001

To determine the dates of Wednesdays in April 2001, we first need to establish the day of the week for the first day of the month.

Determining the First Wednesday

April 1st, 2001, was a Sunday. We can count forward to find the first Wednesday of the month:

  • April 1st: Sunday
  • April 2nd: Monday
  • April 3rd: Tuesday
  • April 4th: Wednesday

So, the first Wednesday of April 2001 fell on the 4th.

Calculating Subsequent Wednesdays

Wednesdays occur every 7 days. Starting from the first Wednesday (April 4th), we can calculate the following Wednesdays by adding 7 days repeatedly:

  • First Wednesday: April 4th
  • Second Wednesday: April 4th + 7 days = April 11th. Using LaTeX for calculation: $4 + 7 = 11$.
  • Third Wednesday: April 11th + 7 days = April 18th. Using LaTeX for calculation: $11 + 7 = 18$.
  • Fourth Wednesday: April 18th + 7 days = April 25th. Using LaTeX for calculation: $18 + 7 = 25$.

Adding another 7 days would take us to May 2nd ($25 + 7 = 32$, which rolls over into the next month), so these are all the Wednesdays in April 2001.

Conclusion

The dates on which Wednesday fell in April 2001 were the 4th, 11th, 18th, and 25th.

Therefore, the correct option is the one listing these dates.
