It is a certainty. There will always be at least one month that will meet the requirement.
First we don't consider leap year There is 1 month with 28 days: february There are 4 months with 30 days: april, june, september, november So the probability to select a month with 28 or 30 days is (1+4)/12 = 5/12 If the year is a leap year then the probability is 4/12
There are 12 months to choose from There are 7 months with 31 days in them. The probability of choosing a 31-day month is 7/12.
The simplistic answer is that August will have five Mondays if the month starts on a Saturday, Sunday or Monday. Three days out of the seven so the probability is 3/7 = 0.4286. However, that assumes that any day of the week is equally likely and that is not the case. The impact of leap years and their 2800-year cycle is to increase the probability to 0.43
Absolute certainty
Considering the fact that a non-leap year having 28days in February will definitely have 4 Tuesdays , we have to find the probability that the 29th day of a leap year (2008) is also a Tuesday. This probability is 1/7 i.e 1 out the probable 7days in a week ! Well this said, this question is void in a sense knowing that we are in 2010 and that February 2008 had 5 Fridays and therefore the probability of 5 Tuesdays is ZERO as of 2008 !
You are guaranteed to have Sundays in a leap year, so in probability terms that is 1.
100%
A Leap year has 366 days. in which you have 52 weeks and 2 days. the 2 days may be sun,Mon mon,Tue tue,wed wed,THu, thu,Fri FRi,SAT sat,sun so you have 7 options among which 2 u can choose.. so the answer is 2/7 for having 53 Sundays. The probability of having 53 Thursdays is also 2/7. The probability of having either 53 Sundays or 53 Thursdays is 4/7.
Not in a month of Sundays.
April is not a month in the Hebrew calendar, and the Sundays in any Hebrew month could easily change from year to year, just as they often do for any month in the civil calendar.
About twice each year
First we don't consider leap year There is 1 month with 28 days: february There are 4 months with 30 days: april, june, september, november So the probability to select a month with 28 or 30 days is (1+4)/12 = 5/12 If the year is a leap year then the probability is 4/12
In a leap year, there are 366 days, which consist of 52 weeks and 2 extra days. Since each week has one Sunday, there are 52 Sundays in the 52 weeks. The 2 extra days can be any combination of days, which means that there is a possibility of having one or two additional Sundays depending on whether those extra days include a Sunday. Therefore, in a leap year, the total number of Sundays can be either 52 or 53.

There were 5. The 1st, 8th, 15th, 22nd and 29th.
