  1. (1) Tuesday
  2. (2) Wednesday
  3. (3) FridayCorrect answer
  4. (4) Saturday

Solution.

CBSE answer: (3)

Answer: (3) Friday

  1. Find each day's change from the day before:
  2. Tuesday 114−86=28114 - 86 = 28; Wednesday 141−114=27141 - 114 = 27; Thursday fell to 95.
  3. Friday 124−95=29124 - 95 = 29; Saturday 151−124=27151 - 124 = 27.
  4. Only Friday shows an increase of exactly 29.

Trap: Tuesday is close (28) but not 29.
