Question 1: If today is Monday, what day of the week will it be in 10 days?
- Wednesday
- Thursday (Correct answer)
- Friday
- Tuesday
Correct answer: Thursday
There are 7 days in a week. In 10 days, one full week (7 days) will pass, bringing us back to Monday. We then add the remaining 3 days (10 - 7 = 3), which brings us to Thursday.
Question 2: A meeting is scheduled for the third Friday of April. If April 1st is a Tuesday, what is the date of the meeting?
- April 11th
- April 25th
- April 18th (Correct answer)
- April 21st
Correct answer: April 18th
If April 1st is a Tuesday, then the first Friday of the month is April 4th. The subsequent Fridays are found by adding 7 days. The second Friday is April 11th (4 + 7), and the third Friday is April 18th (11 + 7).
Question 3: A project started on March 5th and took exactly 4 weeks to complete. On what date was the project completed?
- April 1st
- April 2nd (Correct answer)
- April 5th
- March 31st
Correct answer: April 2nd
Four weeks is equal to 28 days (4 weeks * 7 days/week). Adding 28 days to March 5th gives us the completion date. March has 31 days. March 5 + 28 days = March 33, which is 2 days into the next month, making the date April 2nd.
Question 4: If the day before yesterday was Saturday, what day will it be the day after tomorrow?

If the day before yesterday was Saturday, then yesterday was Sunday, and today must be Monday. If today is Monday, then tomorrow is Tuesday, and the day after tomorrow will be Wednesday.
Question 5: A conference lasts for 3 days, starting on a Wednesday. The final report is due one week after the conference ends. On what day of the week is the report due?
- Thursday
- Wednesday
- Saturday
- Friday (Correct answer)
Correct answer: Friday
The conference starts on Wednesday and lasts for 3 days, so it runs Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday. It ends on Friday. The report is due one week after the conference ends, which will be the following Friday.
Question 6: A subscription renews every 30 days. If the last renewal was on June 10th, when is the next renewal?
- July 9th
- July 11th
- July 10th (Correct answer)
- July 12th
Correct answer: July 10th
June has 30 days. From June 10th to June 30th is 20 days. To reach a total of 30 days, we need 10 more days, which takes us to July 10th. Therefore, the next renewal is on July 10th.
Question 7: A train leaves every 45 minutes. If a train just left at 2:15 PM, what time will the next train leave?
- 2:45 PM
- 3:15 PM
- 3:00 PM (Correct answer)
- 2:50 PM
Correct answer: 3:00 PM
To find the next departure time, add 45 minutes to 2:15 PM. Adding 45 minutes to 15 minutes gives 60 minutes, which is exactly one hour. Therefore, the next train will leave at 3:00 PM.
