Leap Years in the Gregorian calendar (named for Pope Gregory, who made it official) occur every 4 years, in year numbers that are evenly divisible by 4. So 2004, 2008, 2012, 2016 are all leap years.

There are two exceptions.

1. For "century" years, those that are divisible by 100, these are NOT leap years. So 1900 was not a leap year, and 2100 will not be. Remember that; many of you will live to see this. Your children very probably will.

2. For century years that are divisible by 400, these ARE leap years even though point #1 says that they would not be. So 2000 was a leap year, and the year 2400 will be even though none of us will be around to see it.

Every year that is a multiple of 4 will most probably be a leap year

Is the year 1200 a century leap year?

Yes! It was a century leap year. Other century leap years are 1600 and 2000. The next one will probably be 2400, and along with another century leap year, 2800, that is true. The next century leap year will occur in 2400. Century leap years always start on a Saturday and the February 29 intercalation in these days is always a Tuesday to being that year.


Why arnt there leap days in years ending in double zeros?

There can be. Years divisible by 100, but not by 400 are not leap years. So 1900 was not a leap year and 2100 will not be a leap year. The year 2000 was a leap year, because it was divisible by 400. So some double zero years can be a leap year. The next will be 2400.

When was the last leap year?

Well, I'm pretty sure all you have to do is figure out the last leap year and subtract four... Which, of 2011, would be 2008. In case you're struggling with your calculator to figure out the answer, it would be 2008, 2004, 2000, 1996, 1992. Oh, I'm sorry that was 5... But i wouldn't expect you to figure that out on your own...

Is 1976 a leap year?

yes in fact the 19th leap year of the 20th century


Can there be a span of 5 years without a leap day?

Yes. You can actually go for 8 years. Years divisible by 100, but not by 400 are not leap years. So 2100 will not be a leap year. 2096 will and the next will be 2104. The year 2000 was a leap year, because it was divisible by 400.


Will 2012 be a leap year and was 2000 a leap year?

2012 is a leap year.2000 was a leap year, and so were 2004 and 2008. Leap years will fall in almost every year that is evenly divisible by 4.The exception is for years that end in "00" (1900, 2000, 2100). These will not be leap years unless, like 2000, they are also evenly divisible by 400.
