A leap year is a year that is divisible by 400 or 4 but not 100 is 1600 a leap year?

Well if 1600 being divisible by 100 disqualified it as a leap year, that would contradict the rule that 400 is a leap year. So maybe a more explicit way to state the leap year rule would be:
Is_Leap(year) =
true: if 4 divides year OR 400 divides year
false: All other cases.
Hope this helps!

Is every 400 years a leap year?
All years divisible by 4 are leap years. Exceptions occur at the end of century: if the year is divisible by 100, it is not a leap year, unless it is also divisible by 400. Thus, 1700, 1800, 1900 were not leap years, but 1600 and 2000 were leap years.All years divisible by 4 are leap years.

Why did we not have leep years in 1600 1700 and 1800 years?
1600 was a leap year. 1700 and 1800 were not because they were not divisible by 400. If a year is divisible by 100, but not by 400, then it is not a leap year. That is the rules of a leap year. So 1600 was, but 1700, 1800 and 1900 were not; 2000 was and 2100 will not be.
A non leap year in February is?
The other 3 out of 4 years?Answer:Several years qualify to not be leap years:Any year not divisible by 4Any year divisible by 100 unless it is divisible by 400 as well (1600 and 2000 were leap years, but 1700, 1800 and 1900 were not)
What factor is used to determine a century leap-year?
Only century years divisible by 400 qualify to be a leap year. Years divisible by 4 but by 100 are NOT leap years, thus 1700, 1800, and 1900 were not leap years but 2000 was. 2100, 2200 and 2300 will not be leap years but 2400 will be.
What is the last leap year in this century?
2096 will be a leap year, as it is divisible by 4. 2100 will not be a leap year, as, while it is divisible by 4, as a multiple of 100, it is not divisible also by 400.The next year that is a multiple of 100 that will be a leap year is 2400.
Was February in 1900 a leap year?
Nope. The first leap year of the 1900s was the year 1904.Every year evenly divisible by 4 is a leap year exceptthe 100's years unless they are also evenly divisible by 400 (e.g. 1600 and 2000).
What have you learned about a leap year?
1.Every 100th year which is divisible by both 100 and 400 is leap year. Eg: 2000 is divisible by both 100 and 400. so it is leap year. But 2100 is only divisible by 100 and not by 400. therefore it is not a leap year. 2.The year other than 100 which is divisible by 4 is leap year. Eg: 2004 is divisible by 4 but not 2005.
Whether there is any relation with 400 and 100 with a leap year as it has with 4 to determine?
There will be a leap year every 4 years except if it is divisible by 100. However, if it is also divisible by 400, it will be a leap year. 2000 was a leap year because it is divisible by 400, but 2100 will not be a leap year.
How is leap year determined?
Divide the year by 4. If the remainder is 0, the year is said to be divisible by 4. Leap years are years divisible by 4, unless the year is divisible by 100, except when the year is divisible by 400. Thus, 1896 was a leap year, but 4 years later, 1900 was not a leap year because even though it is divisible by 4, it is also divisible by 100. 1996 was a leap year and so was 2000 because in addition to being divisible by 4 and 100, 2000 is also divisible by 400.
How often does a leap a year occur?
=every 4 years==_______________________________________==According to the Gregorian calendar, leap years occur in any year whose number is divisible by four, except:==1. "Century" years, numbers divisible by 100, are NOT leap years, except;==2. Year numbers that are evenly divisible by 400 ARE leap years.==So 1992 and 1996 were leap years because they are divisible by 4. 1900 was NOT a leap year even though it is divisible by 4, because it is divisible by 100. And 2000 WAS a leap year because it was divisible by 400.==So 2008 was, and 2012 will be, and 2016 will be. But the year 2100 will NOT be a leap year.=
How can you determine if a year is a leap year?
First, you can rule out a year being a leap year if it is an odd number, like 2013. If the year is even, is it evenly divisible by 4? If it's not evenly divisible by 4, it's not a leap year. Example: 2010 If it is evenly divisible by 4, is it evenly divisible by 100? If it's not evenly divisible by 100, it is a leap year. Example: 2012 If it is evenly divisible by 100, is it evenly divisible by 400? If it's not evenly divisible by 400, it's not a leap year. Example: 2100 If it is evenly divisible by 400, it is a leap year. Example: 2000
Can there be 8 years gap in leap year?
Indeed there can be 8 years between consecutive leap years. The rule is that a year is a leap year if it is divisible by 4 and not divisible by 100, or if it is divisible by 400. For example, 1700, 1800 and 1900 were not leap years but 1600 and 2000 were leap years.The last occurrence of an 8-year gap between consecutive leap years was therefore 1896 and 1904. The next occurrence will be 2096 and 2104.
