The Correct Option is A

Solution and Explanation

Let us do this iteratively. Feb 29th 2012 = Wednesday => Feb 28th 2012 = Tuesday
Feb 28th 2013 = Thursday (because 2012 is a leap year, there will be 2 odd days)
Feb 28th 2014 = Friday, Feb 28th 2015 = Saturday, Feb 28th 2016 = Sunday, Feb 29th 2016 = Monday
Or, Feb 29th to Feb 29th after 4 years, we have 5 odd days.
