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 = 364days
366 – 364 = 2 days
In a leap year there will be 52 Sundays and 2 days will be left.
These 2 days can be:
1. Sunday, Monday
2. Monday, Tuesday
3. Tuesday, Wednesday
4. Wednesday, Thursday
5. Thursday, Friday
6. Friday, Saturday
7. Saturday, Sunday
Of these total 7 outcomes, the favourable outcomes are 2.
Hence the probability of getting 53 days is 2/7
