Choose the correct choice from the following answers.
A) Sunday B) Tuesday C) Thursday D) Friday E) Saturday
There are 365 days in a non-leap year and 366 in a leap year. In the period in question, there are 17 non-leap years and 6 leap years, thus the number of days in the period is (17 * 365) + (6 * 366)=

<output>8_401</output>
8401. Dividing by 7 yields 1200 and a remainder of 1. Since the first date was a Friday, we advance the day of the week by the remainder of 1 and thus the second date is a Saturday. The answer is Saturday.
