If 5 July 2019 was Friday, what day was it 217 days before?

Correct answer: Option A — Friday. 217 = 31 complete weeks + 0 days. Moving before by 0 day(s) from Friday gives Friday. Option B (Saturday) is rejected because it does not equal the computed result; it represents a counting, direction, leap-year, interval, or hand-motion error. Option C (Sunday) is rejected because it does not equal the computed result; it represents a counting, direction, leap-year, interval, or hand-motion error. Option D (Tuesday) is rejected because it does not equal the computed result; it represents a counting, direction, leap-year, interval, or hand-motion error.
