Correct Answer: Sunday


Solution : Given:
29 November 2009 is Sunday.

Let's calculate the total number of days from the 29th of November 2009 to the 30th of May 2010 –

Number of remaining days in 2009 = 1 + 31 = 32
Number of days from 1 January 2010 to 30 May 2010 = 31 + 28 + 31 + 30 + 30 = 150
So, the total number of days from 29 November 2009 to 30 May 2010 = 32 + 150 = 182
Now, on dividing 182 by 7, we get 26 as the quotient and 0 as the remainder.

Therefore, add 0 to Sunday, Sunday + 0 = Sunday

So, the 30th of May 2010 will be Sunday. Hence, the second option is correct.
