Question

Calculate the total hours in the year 3248.

• A. 8784

Answer 1

The correct option is A 8784
To calculate the total hours present in a year, first we need to know whether it has 365 or 366 days.

The given year 3248, when divided by 4, leaves 812 as the quotient and 0 as the remainder, i.e. it is divisible by 4.

Also it is not a century year, so there is no need to check its divisibility by 400.

Since 3248 is a leap year, there will be 366 days in it. Each day has 24 hours.
$⟹$ Total hours in the year 3248 = $366\times 24=8784$.
