FEBRUARY - 4 Even 7 Day Weeks

by  C. Henry Adams


One day, a wise older man sat on a bench in a park when a young boy familiar with him while walking home from school, stop to greet him.   This is the conversation that ensued.

Young Boy:  Greetings Elder

Wise Older Man:   Hello Young Man, how are you?

Young Boy:  I'm well, just coming from school.

Wise Older Man:   Outstanding job, you have just completed the 1st seven even days.

With a puzzled look upon the child's head, he made this statement to the wise older man.

Young Boy: Seven is an odd number.  How many seven even days is it?

Wise Older Man: In this very short month, it is only 4.

So, I ask you;  what Month was it and to which day of the Month did this conversation allude to...?

If you answered February and proposed the day to be the 7th, you are correct.

Fore, there are (4) four seven day weeks in this month which equal to 28 even days.
