Solution

The correct option is C 0.25
Every normal year has 365.25 days in total.
This extra 0.25 day is not added in that year.
For example lets consider the years 2017, 2018, 2019 and 2020.
The sum of extra days of these years gives a full day in the year 2020 as 0.25 (of 2017) + 0.25 (of 2018) + 0.25 (of 2019) + 0.25 (of 2020) = 1

Hence, 2020 is a leap year with 365 +1 =366 days in total.
