Simple Trick To Remember Which Months Have 31 Days?
I will share the simple knuckle trick to remember which months have 31 days. If you just have a look at the below image, I don’t think I have to explain anything.
All you have to do is just tap on your knuckles and the gaps between the knuckles.
If the month is on a knuckle, it will have 31 days. When you tap on the gaps, the months will have 30 days except the first one. As we are aware of that the February has 28 or 29 days.
Tap the first knuckle as the month of January.
Next, consider the space between the first and second knuckles as the month of February.
Similarly, tap the second knuckle as the month of March. Just repeat the process for the next consecutive months.
Once you tap to the 4th knuckle, you will be counting the month July. Start over again from the same place and go back by following the same procedure. The last knuckle will be considered as the first knuckle for the month of August.
The only thing you got to remember is that the February has 28 or 29 days. I have been following the same technique since my childhood. I hope you have enjoyed the easy knuckle trick.
