Correct Answer: Monday


Solution : Given:
31 December 2003 is a Wednesday.

Let's calculate the total number of days from the 31st of December 2003 to the 7th of March 2005 –
366 + 31 + 28 + 7 = 432
Now, on dividing 432 by 7, we get 5 as a remainder.
So, Wednesday + 5 days = Monday

The 7th of March 2005 will be Monday. Hence, the fourth option is correct.
