There are 7 days in a week and one week follows another. Tuesday is the third day of the week and Sunday is the first day of the week. It is more correct to say that Tuesday is two days after Sunday, but it is true that five days after Tuesday, it is Sunday.
Thursday is two days after Tuesday.
Tuesday comes 2 days after Sunday. This is just the way the calendar has been set up.
Tuesday.Tuesday.Tuesday.Tuesday.Tuesday.Tuesday.Tuesday.Tuesday.Tuesday.Tuesday.Tuesday.
The day Tuesday comes after Monday. The day Tuesday comes after Monday.
This kind of problem is easier to solve if you assign arbitrary dates to what you are trying to figure out. For example, let's say that "Wednesday" was the 12th of December. We will start at the end of this problem and work backwards."The day that comes three days before Wednesday" would be the 9th, a Sunday."The day that comes two days after" this date would be the 11th, a Tuesday."The day that comes two days after" this date would be the 14th, a Thursday."Three days before" this date is the 11th, a Tuesday.
A day before Tuesday is Monday. A day after Tuesday is Wednesday.
Five days after Wednesday is Monday. So if Monday is the day after tomorrow, today is Saturday.
TUEsday.
Tuesday + 397 days = Saturday
Tuesday! Why?
If you mean three days AFTER Tuesday, that would be Friday.
