When should cual be used and when should que be used? For example,

What is the date today. Which days would be best for dancing. What color do you like best? What is the proper way to clean a food contact surface?

Cual would be used for a selection of things "Which one." Cual de las dos me recomiendas? Which of the two do you recommend?

Que on the other hand is not used for a selection of things. Que te dijo el otro dia cuando estuvimos en mexico por 4 dias? What did he tell you the other day when we were in mexcico for 4 days? Dime lo que quieres/quisieras saber de la tarea. Tell me what you would like/want to know from the homework
