Since there are 31 days nd exactly 4 sundays and 4 mondays should be there.
first we divide (31/4)=(7+3) so that 4 weeks containing 4 sundays and 4 mondays will b there and 3 more days are there.
Now logic is to choose these consecutive days such that no more sunday or monday comes in these 3 cosecutive days so that our sunday and monday wil remain constant i.e 4.
now if we choose 3 consecutive days as mon,tue,wed then no more sun and mon is there satisfying our requirement.And for any other cases it invalidates our requirement increasing either the no. of sun or mon.Therefore ans is--monday

you can just number the days as 1234...31.
If you put the first day as monday,then
If (mon-1).... (mon-8)...(mon-15)...(22)...(29).
Now , we can calculate the SUNDAYS and THURSDAYS according to the dates fall on mondays...
While numbering, we should be conscious, that the month must have only 4 suns and 4 thurs.

so, the answer is MONDAY.
