B

C
Fourth Sunday
D
Fifth Friday
Answer
Fifth Friday
Explanation
Solution
The third Wednesday falls on the 15th of the month.
This means the first Wednesday was on the 1st of the month because Wednesdays occur in a 7-day cycle.
Now, the month has 31 days.
If the 1st was a Wednesday, the days of the week for the rest of the month follow the same pattern
Following this pattern, the 31st day of the month will fall on a Friday.
Hence, the last day of the month will be a Fifth Friday.
