Answer:
- Therefore the probability of a year having 53 Sundays = n(E)/n(S) = 1/7. If the year in question is a leap year, there are 366 days. Since 364 is a multiple of 7, there will be 52 Sundays, 52 Mondays,…………….53 Saturdays.
- So altogether for the Gregorian calendar system, the probability of any given leap year being a leap year with 53 Sundays and 53 Mondays is 15/97 = 15.46…%, which is a little different from our earlier estimate of 1/7 = 14.29…%.
- 53 Sundays
- What is the probability that a leap year has 53 Sundays? There are 366 days in a leap year, i.e, 1 more than a normal year. That means that we already have 52 sundays for sure
Step-by-step explanation:
1 year = 365 days
A leap year has 366 days
A year has 52 weeks. Hence there will be 52 Sundays for sure.
52 weeks = 52 x 7 = 364 days
366 – 364 =2 days
In a leap year there will be 52 Sundays and 2 days will be left.
These 2 days can be
Sunday, Monday
Monday, Tuesday
Tuesday, Wednesday
Wednesday, Thursday
Thursday, Friday
Friday, Saturday
Of these total 7 outcomes, the favourable outcomes are 2.
Hence the probability of getting 53 days
=2/7
