Correct Answer: Saturday
Solution :
Given:
The 5th of the month falls on the third day after Sunday.
The 5th of the month falls on the third day after Sunday. So, the 5th of the month is three days after Sunday, that is Wednesday.
Remaining days = 15 – 5 = 10
Now, divide 10 by 7, we get 3 as a remainder.
Add 3 days to Wednesday, it will be Saturday.
So, the 15th of that month falls on Saturday. Hence, the third option is correct.
