The “day before tomorrow” is today; “the day before two days after” is really one day after. So if “one day after today is Saturday,” then it must be Friday .

reading the statement from last,

+ 1 − 1 + 2 − 1 = 1 +1-1+2-1=1 Hence,tomorrow is saturday.Today is F r i d a y \boxed{Friday} .

We need to break this down to pieces. Work backwards.

  1. (The day before tomorrow) =Today

  2. Two days after (The day before tomorrow) = Two days after (Today) = The day after tomorrow

  3. The day before （Two days after the day before tomorrow）= The day before (The day after tomorrow) = Tomorrow

  4. Tomorrow is Saturday.

  5. So today is Friday.
