Calculate What Day of the Week it is With Our Simple Formula
ADVERTISEMENT
Not working for August 31, 2013 or for June 3rd 1927 unless I’m doing something wrong.
August 31 2013 I got Tuesday but it is Saturday
June 3rd 1927 I got Thursday but it is Friday
Can anyone help?
this doesn't seem to work for February 4, 2000.
00
+0
=0
+4
=4
+3
=7
-1
=6
/7
= no remainder
= Saturday
But, the real answer is Friday..?
When 6 is divided by 7, this is not the case 'no remainder' rather the remainder is 6 and as a result the answer will be Friday as required.
Because its a century year
Day 4. February 2000
4 3. 6. 0. 0
=4+3 will be seven and it will be zero because we don't count 7 .means only 6 days are there. Therefore the 6th day is Friday.
lol i see now the remainder is 6... need to review that elementary school maths!
Can you explain the month Key number.
In your example Dec = 6, and in a comment Feb = 4
How are these calculated?
Thanks
There are codes for 12 months
1 4 4 0 2 5 0 3 6 1 4 6
And for leap year only code of January and February will be changed as 0 and 3
You have to trust that Jan = 1. For the next months, keeping adding the extra days past 28 (which when divided by 7 =0). So, 1 + 3 (for Jan.) = 4 for Feb. Then 4 + 0 (for Feb) = 4 for March... then 4 + 3 (for March) = 7 for April but 7 is 0 because there are 7 days in a week. Then 0 + 2 (for April) = 2 for May and so on.
And what id the one-quater is a decimal can you say an example with that?
Sorry my bad
