Period up to 17th August, 2010 = (2009 yr + Period from 1.1.2010 to 17.8.2010)
Counting of odd days
Odd day in 1600 yr = 0
Odd days in 400 yr = 0
9 yr = (2 leap year + 7 ordinary years) = (2 x 2 + 7 x 1 ) = 1 Week + 4 days = 4 odd days
Number of days between 1.1.2010 to 17.8.2010
January + February + March + April + May + June + July + August.
= (31 + 28 + 31 + 30 + 31 + 30 + 31 + 17) days
= 229 days = 32 weeks + 5 odd days
Total number of odd days
= (0 + 0 + 4 + 5) days = 9 days
= 1 week + 2 odd days
Hence, the required day is Tuesday.
