Question 6: What date falls 21 days after 19th of February?
19 + 21 = 40 → but February only has 29 days.
So:
Days left in Feb after 19th: 29 - 19 = 10 days → so we use 10 days to reach end of Feb.
Remaining days: 21 - 10 = 11 → so 11 days into March.

Actually, looking at the grid:
Row 1: M=1, T=2, W=3, T=4, F=5, S=6, S=7
Row 2: M=8, T=9, W=10, T=11, F=12, S=13, S=14
