Number of days in leap year = 366
Calculation:
A week has 7 days and total days are 366.
⇒ Number of Sundays in a leap year
= 366/7
= 52 Sundays + 2 days
⇒ Total outcomes with 2 days
= (Sunday, Monday), (Monday, Tuesday), (Tuesday, Wednesday), (Wednesday, Thursday), (Thursday, Friday), (Friday, Saturday), (Saturday, Sunday)
= 7
⇒ Number of outcomes without Sundays = 5
⇒ Probability of leap year with 53 Sundays = 2/7
∴ Probability of leap year with 53 Sundays is 2/7.
The correct answer is Option 3.
