Question 54

The leap day falls on the same day of the week after a gap of at least ______________.

Solution

364 days makes 52 weeks so we will take the remainder days in a year and add them.

For a period of 4 years the no. of days which we get = 2+1+1+1 =5

We have taken a period 4 years as a leap year occurs in every 4 years

Now, we have to make 5 days a multiple of 7 for which we have to multiply it with 7.

So, total years will be 4*7 = 28 years
