Correct

Wow!

US Version

Friday is the correct answer. It's easy to figure out once you break it down. Yesterday's day after tomorrow is Sunday, which means tomorrow must be Sunday, and today is Saturday.

Therefore, tomorrow's (Sunday's) day before yesterday is Friday!

UK Version

Friday is the correct answer. It's easy to work out if you break it down.

Two days after yesterday is Sunday, so tomorrow must be Sunday. That means today is Saturday.

Two days before tomorrow, therefore, is two days before Sunday, or Friday.
