[LSW02] Today Is a Quarter

PuzzleEdit

One day, a boy noticed something peculiar while looking at his favorite calendar.

"Today's date is a quarter of the number shown a week ago, and a third of the number shown two weeks ago."

What month and day is it today?

HintsEdit

SolutionEdit

IncorrectEdit

Too bad.

Keep in mind that there are only seven days in a week.

CorrectEdit

Correct!

The dates one week ago and two weeks ago are seven days apart and must be factors of seven. Today's date must be the 7th of the month.

For the number shown one week ago to be 28, last month must be February. Therefore, today is the 7th of March.
