The calendar for the year 2001 is same for which of the following year?

A.	2005	B.	2007
C.	2011	D.	2006

Answer and Explanation

Answer: 2007

Explanation:
The total number of odd days from 2001 onwards should be zero.
Now, as an ordinary year adds 1 odd day and a leap year adds 2 odd days, we have:
2001, 2002, 2003, 2005, 2006 â€“ 1 odd day each
2004 â€“ 2 odd days
Hence, at the end of 2006 total number of odd days = 7 or 0
Therefore, the calendar for the year 2001 is repeated in the year 2007.
