$\huge \mathcal{ \fcolorbox{aqua}{azure}{ \green{ANSWER}}}$

In 400 consecutive years there are 97 leap years. Hence, in 400 consecutive years February has the 29th day 97 times and the remaining eleven months have the 29th day 400 × 11 or 4400 times.

Thus the 29th day of the month occurs

= 4400 + 97

= 4497 times.

Answer 2

In 50 consecutive years, there are 24 leap years Hence in 50 consecutive years February has the 29th day 24 times and the remaining 11 months have the 29th day 50 x 11 or 550 times

Hence, 29th day of the month occurs (550 + 24) or 574 times.
