An ordinary year has 365 days
A year has 52 weeks. Hence there will be 52 Sundays for sure.
52 weeks = 364 days
365 – 364 = 1 day
In an ordinary year, there will be 52 Sundays and 1 day will be left.
This one day can be, Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday.
Of these total 7 outcomes, the favourable outcome is 1.
Hence the probability of getting 53 Sundays = 1/7
