Answer 1

Given: 11 November 2009 was Wednesday.

Now,

2009 to 2013 = 4 Years (3 Ordinary Year and 1 Leap Year).

And, In 4 Years = 1 Leap year and 3 Ordinary Year.

So, 1 Leap Year has 2 odd days,

And, 3 Ordinary Year has 3 odd days.

Total odd days = 2 + 3 = 5.

then, 11 November 2013 will be Wednesday + 5 = Monday.

Now, the number of days between 11 November 2013 to 17 November 2013

= 6 days.

So, 17 November 2013 will be Monday + 6 = Sunday.

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 1".
