There are 365 days in a normal year and 366 days in a leap year.

A period of 24 consecutive years will have 5 or 6 leap years.

24 x 365 = 8760

add 5 or 6 leap years and you get 8765 or 8766 days.

There are 7 days in a week.

8765 / 7 = 1252 weeks plus 1 day

8766 / 7 = 1252 weeks plus 2 days.

You do not get the right answer multiplying 52 by 24 because a year does not contain exactly 52 weeks. It contains a little more than 52 weeks.
