What day of the week was it on 15 August 1947? Statement (I): India became independent on 15 August 1947. Statement (II): 15 August 1947 was 5 days before Saturday.
ANeither
B(I) alone sufficient
CBoth needed
D(II) alone sufficient
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: D. (II) alone sufficient
To determine the day, we need calendar information. Statement (II) directly tells us 15 August was 5 days before Saturday → 5 days before Sat = Monday. (I) is just a fact, doesn't help find the day. So (II) alone sufficient.
