Step-by-Step Solution

October here starts on a Friday and has 31 days, so Friday, Saturday and Sunday occur five times. Sundays: 3, 10, 17, 24, 31 (5 days). Saturdays: 2, 9, 16, 23, 30, so the second Saturday is the 9th. Working days = 31 − 5 − 1 = 25. (26 forgets the second Saturday.)
Answer: B) 25
