FAQs & Answers

  1. How do you calculate the day of the week after a certain number of days? Divide the number of days by 7 to find the number of full weeks and the remainder will indicate how many days past the starting day to count. Add the remainder to the starting day to get the resulting day.
  2. What day will it be 100 days from Monday? Divide 100 by 7, which gives 14 weeks and 2 days. Starting from Monday, count 2 days forward. So, 100 days from Monday is a Wednesday.
  3. Why do we divide days by 7 when calculating future days? Because there are 7 days in a week, dividing by 7 allows us to find how many full weeks pass, and the remainder tells us how many days beyond complete weeks to add to the starting day.
