From Madi:
Hi guys,
I have a question. July 4, 1903, was a Tuesday. On what day of the
week was July 4, 1904? If you could give me an equation that would
work for any question like this, that would be GREAT!
Your fellow math scholar (in training),

2002-02-20 |
|
From John:
When will the calendar be the same as 2002? I know the answer is 2013, but I don't know how to answer this mathematically, or if it is possible to do so. This is a ninth grade level algebra question my daughter received from her teacher. Any ideas?

The calendar that astronomers use began on Jan. 1, 4713 B.C. on that day, the julian calendar, the lunar calendar, and roman tax system calendar all coincided. This won't happen again until 3267 A.D.
(a). How many years ago was the astronomer's calendar started?
(b). Find the number of years between times that the three calendars coincided.
