Figure This!

Make a list. If January 1 is on a Monday, on what day is January 13? On what day is the first day of the next month? The 13th of the next month? Suppose January 1 is on a Tuesday?

Get a calendar and check to see how the dates fall. How many different calendars are possible? (Remember leap years.)
