A year containing an extra day. It has 366 days instead of the normal 365 days. The extra day is added in February, which has 29 days instead of the normal 28 days. Leap years occur every 4 years. 2020 is a leap year and so is 2024.

Perfect Answer: The earth completes one revolution in 365 days and 6 hours. For our convenience, we consider the year as consisting of only 365 days and ignore the 6 hours. This time of 6 hours is added up to one day after every four years and the fourth year is called a leap year. In the leap year this additional day is added in the month of February. February usually has 28 days but this month does have 29 days in the leap year.
