What is meant by leap year
  • 2 answers

Tejaswini Ojha 6 years, 5 months ago

Leap year is a year which has 366 days instead of usual 365 days and 6 hours to complete a revolution. But for the sake of convenience we consider that a year consists 365 days. This leads to the exclusion of 6 hours for 3 consecutive years. However this 6 hours constitute a day in 4 years (6+6+6+6=24). Therefore, one day is added to that year to the month of February, which becomes the month of 29 days instead of 28 days once in 4 years.
