Correct Answer: Friday


Solution : Given:
13 September 2023 is a Wednesday

Let's calculate the total number of days from the 13th of September 2023 to the 30th of August 2030 –

Number of days from 13 September 2023 to 31 December 2023 = 17 + 31 + 30 + 31 = 109
Number of days from 1 January 2024 to 31 December 2029 = (6 × 365) + 2 = 2192 (2 leap years)
Number of days from 1 January 2030 to 30 August 2030 = 31 + 28 + 31 + 30 + 31 + 30 + 31 + 30 = 242
So, the total number of days from 13 September 2023 to 30 August 2030 = 109 + 2192 + 242 = 2543
Now, on dividing 2543 by 7, we get 363 as the quotient and 2 as the remainder.

Therefore, add 2 to Wednesday, Wednesday + 2 = Friday

So, the 30th of August 2030 will be Friday. Hence, the first option is correct.
