Answer 1

Given: 6 November 1925 was Friday.

Now,

1925 to 1933 = 8 Years (6 Ordinary Year and 2 Leap Year).

And, In 8 Years = 2 Leap years and 6 Ordinary Year.

So, 2 Leap Year has 4 odd days,

And, 6 Ordinary Year has 6 odd days.

Total odd days = 4 + 6 = 10.

10 odd days → 10/7 = 1 week and 3 odd days.

then, 6 November 1933 will be Friday + 3 = Monday.

Now, the number of days between 6 November 1933 to 16 December 1933

= 24(November) + 16(December) = 40 days.

= 40 days → 40/7 = 5 week and 5 odd day.

So, 16 December 1933 will be Monday + 5 = Saturday.

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 4".
