Given date: 27 June 1980.

Year Odd Days
100 5 odd days
200 3 odd days
300 1 odd day
400 0 odd days

Now,

Till 1979 → 1600 + 300 + 79

Leap Year 2 Odd days
Ordinary Year

1 Odd day

In 1600 Years the odd day is 0,

In 300 Years the odd day is 1,

In 79 Years(19 Leap Years and 60 Ordinary years) the odd day is 19 × 2 + 60 × 1 = 38 + 60 = 98 odd days,

⇒ 0 + 1 + 98

⇒ 99 odd days.

And, from 1st Jan 1980 to 27 June 1980:

⇒ 31(Jan) + 29(Feb, 1980 is a leap year) + 31(March) + 30(April) + 31(May) + 27(June) = 179 days.

Total odd days → 99 + 179 = 278 days = 278/7 = 39 weeks and 5 odd days.

→ 5 represents Friday.

So, 27 June 1980 is Friday.

Hence, the correct answer is "Friday".
