A 'Leap Year' occurs every four years.
To find a Leap Year, the year number must be divisble by '4'.
2020 / 4 = 505 so is a leap year.
2021 / 4 = 505.25 So NOT a leap year
2022 / 4 = 505.5 So not a leap year
2023 / 4 = 505.75 ~So not a leap year
2024 / 4 = 506 - so is a leap year.
et.seq.
NB The Earth orbits the Sun in 365.24 days. The ' -.24' is nearly a quarter of a day. So four quarters makes one whole day, so that one whole day is added every four years. However, the '-.24 - -0.25 = 0.01 ' So there is still a one hundredth of a day to account for. This is 14.4 minutes, so about once every 25 years a leap year is missed in order to account for this differential.
Remember the old verse:-
Thirty days hath September ,
April, June and November.
All the rest have thirty one,
Excepting February alone,
Which has 28 days clear,
And 29 days each Leap Year.

The exact length, in days, of Earth's true sidereal orbital period is 365.256366 (364 and 1/4 ) days or 1.0000175 years. As this is not a whole number of days, our Earth calender is arranged to have normal years and leap years. We make a normal year have 365 days and a leap year have 366 days. We arrange it so that a leap year happens every 4th year so that extra day makes up for the four 1/4 days we need make the orbit position the same over time.
