What is the possibility of having 53 Thursdays in a non-leap year?
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer:
Option
C
A non-leap year has 365 days, which has 52 weeks (364 days) means 52 Thursdays
Thus there is just 1 day extra
We want it to be Thursday
Total possibilities are 7 (Sunday to Saturday means 7 days)
∴ Probability of 53 Thursday = $$\frac{{1}}{{7}}$$
Thus there is just 1 day extra
We want it to be Thursday
Total possibilities are 7 (Sunday to Saturday means 7 days)
∴ Probability of 53 Thursday = $$\frac{{1}}{{7}}$$
