Ordinary Year:

The year which is not a leap year is called an ordinary year. An ordinary year has 365 days.

Leap Year:

A leap year has 366 days.

1. Every year divisible by 4 is a leap year, given that it is not a century year.
2. Every 4th century is a leap year and no other century is a leap year.

For eg: Each of the years 1944, 2008, 1680 etc. is a leap year.

Each of the years 400, 800, 1200, 1600, 2000 etc. is a leap year.

The concept of Odd Days & how to calculate it:

In an ordinary year, there are 365 days in a year that means 52 x 7 + 1, or 52 weeks and one day. This additional day is called an odd day. The concept of odd days is very important from calendars point of view.

How to Count Number of Odd Days:

• 1 ordinary year = 365 days = (52 weeks + 1 day.)

So, 1 ordinary year has 1 odd day.

• 1 leap year = 366 days = (52 weeks + 2 days)

So, 1 leap year has 2 odd days.
