- To determine the day of the week for 17 April 2014, the Zeller's Congruence formula can be used.

- Step 1: Assign month numbers: April is the 4th month.

- Step 2: Since April is before March, year stays as 2014.

- Step 3: Equation: h = (q + [(13(m+1))//5] + K + [K//4] + [J//4] - 2J) % 7

- Where: h is the day code, q is the day (17), m is the month number (4), K is the year of the century (14), J is the century (20).

- Calculation gives h = 5.

- h = 5 corresponds to Thursday.

- Option 2: Thursday is the correct answer.
