The solution to your given question is:--
==========================


Number of days in a leap year =366 days =52 weeks and 2 days

Now 52 weeks contain 52 Sundays and the remaining two days will be one of the
following seven possibilities:---

(Sun,Mon) (Mon,Tue),(Tue,Wed), (Wed,Thu),(Thu,Fri),(Fri,Sat) and (Sat,Sun)

The probability of 53 Sundays in a leap year is the same as the probability of getting
a Sunday in the above seven possibilities.

Required probability is 2/7. ☆

Heya \:  @EshanSingh !!!<br /> \\  <br />This  \: is \:  your \:  answer. \\ <br /><br />To  \: find :- \\ <br /><br />Probability  \: of \:  53  \: Sundays \:  in  \: a \:   \\ Leap \:  Year.<br /> \\  \\ <br />Now,  \\ Solution :- \\ <br /><br />Days \:  in  \: a  \: Leap  \: Year = 366. \\ <br /><br />Weaks \:  in  \: the  \: leap \:  year = 366/7 \\ <br />=&gt; Quotient= 52....    Remainder = 2. \\ <br /><br />Hence,  \: there \:  are \:  52 \:  weeks  \: and  \\ two  \: days \:  in  \: the  \: leap  \: year. \\  \\ <br /><br />As \:  there  \: are \:  52  \: weeks, \\  then  \: there  \: will  \: be \:  52  \: Sundays \\  for  \: sure. \\  \\ <br /><br />Now, \:  about \:  the  \: two \:  days  :- \\  \\ <br /><br />They  \: can \:  be  \: of  \: following \:  combination.
Monday,  \: Tuesday \\ <br />Tuesday, \:  Wednesday \\ <br />Wednesday,  \: Thursday \\ <br />Thursday, \:  Friday \\ <br />Friday,  \: Saturday \\ <br />Saturday,  \: Sunday \\ <br />Sunday,  \: Monday \\ <br />
So, \:  there \:  are  \: 7 \:  probabilities. \:  \\  Out  \: of  \: which  \: probablity \:  of getting \: Sunday  \: is  \: 2. \\  \\ <br /><br />Hence,  \: the  \: probability  \: of  \: 53 \:  Sundays  \\ \:  in  \: a \:  Leap \:  Year  \: is  \frac{2}{7} .<br /> \\  \\  \\ <br />Hope  \: It \:  Helps.........
