Solution: 1 year = 365 days A leap year has 366 days A year has 52 weeks. Hence there will be 52 Thursdays for sure. 52 weeks = 52 x 7 = 364 days 366 – 364 =2 days In a leap year there will be 52 Thursdays and 2 days will be left. These 2 days can be: Sunday, Monday Monday, Tuesday Tuesday, WednesdayWednesday, Thursday Thursday, Friday Friday, Saturday Saturday, Sunday Of these total 7 outcomes, the favourable outcomes are 2.Hence the probability of getting 53 Thursdays in a leap year = 2/7.
