If you want to find day as Sunday, Monday, etc. You can achieve it as:

 

Datetime dt = DateTime.newInstance(Date.today(), Time.newInstance(0, 0, 0, 0));

dayOfWeek = dt.format('EEEE');

System.debug(dayOfWeek);

Hi If you are getting date than you can find day in such a way:

 

Date d =date.today();

String day = String.valueOf(d.day());
