Hi,

Considering that each year is composed by 365 days. this is equivalent to 52 full weeks plus 1 day. thus, each "normal" year the 25 june will be the day after the one the year before (friday in 1982, saturday in 1983...).

You just have to be careful with the leap year where you need to add "+2" days in stead of "+1" on a normal year because there are 366 days in those years...

So the answer is:
1982 : friday
1983: saturday
1984: monday
1985: tuesay
1986: wednesday
1987: thursday

So answer E
