Solution
Answer: Option D
Solution:
Let us find the day on 1st July, 2004.2000 years have 0 odd day. 3 ordinary years have 3 odd days.
Jan. Feb. March April May June July
31 + 29 + 31 + 30 + 31 + 30 + 1

Total number of odd days = (0 + 3 + 1) odd days = 4 odd days.
∴ 1st July 2004 was 'Thursday'
Thus, 1st Monday in July 2004 as on 5th July. Hence, during July 2004, Monday fell on 5th, 12th, 19th and 26th.
