Given,

  • Two persons give one right answer and one wrong answer.
  • Two persons give both answers wrong.

⇒ Thus, the day which is common in the answer of any two persons and also that day should not be answered by remaining two persons (who gave only wrong answers) would be the day today.

Tabulating the given information-

Pic194

Thus, Wednesday is the common answer given by Person 1 and Person 4.

Also, Wednesday is not given as an answer by Person 2 and Person 3.

Thus, Wednesday is the day today.

Hence, 'option 4' is the correct answer.
