The probability is very close to 0.25 A year is a leap year if the number is divisible by 4 - except if the number is divisible by 100 it is not a leap year - except if the number is divisible by 400 it is a leap year. So, in a 400-year period there are 97 leap years. The probability or relative frequency of leap years is, therefore, 97/400 = 0.2425
The total number of days in a leap year is 366. Then, if we want to determine the probability of 53 Wednesdays occurring in a leap year, we write 53 / 366.
In a leap year, there are 366 days, which equates to 52 weeks and 2 extra days. These extra days can be any combination of two consecutive days of the week. Since a leap year can start on any day of the week, the combinations that include Monday are: Monday-Tuesday, and Sunday-Monday. Thus, the probability of having 52 Mondays in a leap year is 5 out of 7, or approximately 71.4%.
Total number of days in a leap year is 366, ie 52 weeks and 2 days. The last 2 days can be either ( Mon Tue, Tue Wed, Wed Thu, Thu Fri, Fri Sat, Sat Sun, Sun Mon) The possible outcomes are 7 The outcomes where one of the day is a Sunday is 2 So probability of getting 53 Sundays is = 2/7. The exact probability is 28/97, which is about 28.87%.
Birthdays are not distributed uniformly over a year but if, for the sake of probability games you assume that they are, then ignoring leap years, the probability is 0.5687. Including leap years, it is slightly lower.
The year MUST start on a Sunday. For a leap year, it can start on Saturday or Sunday. In any period of 400 years there are 303 non-leap years, of which 43 begins and ends with a Sunday, and there are 97 leap years, of which 28 begins with a Saturday or a Sunday. So the probability in a non-leap year is 43/303, or 14.2%. And the probability in a leap year is 28/97, or 28.9%
You are guaranteed to have Sundays in a leap year, so in probability terms that is 1.

100%
Total number of days in a leap year is 366, ie 52 weeks and 2 days.

The exact probability is 28/97, which is about 28.87%.
A leap year is 52 weeks plus 2 days. That means that 2 days have 53 instances. So there is a 2/7 chance that there will be 53 Fridays. There is absolutely no chance that there are 54 Sundays, since 53 is the most you can have. Good luck. The exact probability is 28/97, which is about 28.87%.
The first leap year of the 31st century will be 3004. It will be a leap year starting on Sunday, like 1984, 2012 and 2040.
twice Christmas falls on Sunday in 2016 and 2022, and it skips Sunday in 2028.
That is true only in regular years. When October 1st falls on a Sunday in the year before a leap year, in the leap year it falls on a Tuesday.
there is how the heck should i know in a leap year
There are usually 52 Sundays in a year. But if the year starts on Sunday or is a leap year starting on Saturday, there will be 53 Sundays in that year.
