Explanation	Calculations	Help
$Calculate the total number of days in 3 years.$	$3 \times 365 = 1095$
$Divide the total days by 7 to find how many complete weeks and the remainder, which tells us how many days forward from Wednesday.$	$1095 \div 7 = 156 remainder 3$
$The remainder of 3 means we move forward 3 days from Wednesday.$	$Wednesday + 3 days = Saturday$
