Daniel had been looking forward to his birthday for a long time.
One day he looked at the date and he thought it was his birthday!
Then he realized he got the day and month swapped, and his birthday was still six weeks away...
what is the date of Daniel's birthday?
:
6 * 7 = 42 days
:
This is a logic problem
we know the numbers involved will be 1 to 12
we know that they have to be consecutive months because of the 42 days
the only consecutive months to span 42 days with these numbers are
Dec 1, and Jan 12
:
He thought 12-1 was his birthday, but it was 1-12. 30 + 12 days = 42
