I wonder if day length is given separately in a table prior to the question? I’m not sure what they wanted except maybe seconds?
Most date libraries count to 23h 59m 59s then roll over to 00h 00m 00s. So the answer is 23 hours, not 24.
Edit: I'm big dum dum. It's asking string length of "Monday", thus 6.
You're also mistaken about the time too. The first second of the day is 00:00:00 the last second of the day is 23:59:59
That's still a full and exact 24 hours.
Yes, it's a full 24 hours, but a library doesn't use 24:00:00 to represent the last hour, it's 23:59:59. Once it hits 24:00, it rolls over to 00:00:00.
Hence my initial error of answering 23.
It's not valid, but I don't edit out erronous answers because I believe all data should be preserved, no matter how dumb it makes one look.
00:00:00 is the 1st second of the day. 23:59:59 is the 86400th second of the day. That's 24 hours.

I have but one up vote and you already have it.
