...this dumb SAT problem has no correct answer.

"What day of the week will it be 250 days from Tuesday?"

A: Sunday
B: Monday
C: Tuesday
D: Wednesday
E: Thursday

So I did it and I got..Saturday. Yahoo answers agrees. Now all my hope is gone to you, Southperry.

Sunday.

Seven Days from Tuesday is Tuesday. There's 35 seven days. Then there's five days.

35 weeks is 245 days. That will still be Tuesday then, correct? 5 days later is 250 days.... which would be Sunday. Unless I'm mistaken.

EDIT: ninja'd. But we still have the same thoughts, should be correct.

Being the idiot I am, I forgot to add that extra day since it's 250 days from that day =/.

Damn SATs. Oh well I still would've gotten the right answer since Sunday is the closest day to Saturday that's listed.

I didn't trust them. I went to them to confirm D=.
