Question

Find the 53 Sundays in an leap year

Open in App
Solution

I think question is about probability.

A leap year has 366 days or 52 weeks and 2 odd days. The two odd days can be {Sunday,Monday},{Monday,Tuesday},{Tuesday,Wednesday},{Wednesday,Thursday},{Thursday,Friday},{Friday,Saturday},{Saturday,Sunday}.

So there are 7 possibiliyies out of which 2 have a Sunday. So the probability of 53 Sundays in a leap year is 2/7
