C) (11 + 10/11) min past 2 D) (12 + 10/11) min past 2

Answer & Explanation Answer: A) Tuesday

Explanation:

16th July, 1776 = (1775 years + Period from 1st Jan, 1776 to 16th July, 1776)

Counting of odd days :

1600 years have 0 odd day.

1775 years have (0 + 5 + 2) odd days = 7 odd days = 0 odd day.
