What is a Leap Year?

A leap year is a year containing one additional day (February 29) to keep the calendar year synchronized with the astronomical year. This happens approximately every four years to account for the fact that a complete revolution around the Sun takes approximately 365.25 days.

Leap Year Rules

  • The year must be divisible by 4
  • If it's a century year (ending in 00), it must be divisible by 400
  • Century years not divisible by 400 are not leap years
