Correct Answer: Wednesday
Solution :
Given:
The 29th of November 2010 was Monday.
Let's calculate the total number of days from the 29th of November 2010 to the 29th of November 2017 –
7 × 365 = 2555 + 2 = 2557
( 2 days are being added as 2012 and 2016 are leap years.)
Now, on dividing 2557 by 7, we get 2 as a remainder.
So, Monday + 2 days = Wednesday
So, the 29th of November 2017 was Wednesday. Hence, the third option is correct.
