If the century year is divisible by four it is not a leap year
A leap year is every 4 years, with the exception of years that can be divided by 100 and cannot be divided by 400. So 1900 was not a leap year, but 2000 was.
A leap year occurs every four years. The exception is that there is no leap year at the turn of the century. The exception to the exception is that there is a leap year every fourth century. The next leap year will be in 2012 (which the Mayan's predicted will be the end of the world). Also, the Olympic Games take place every fourth year, e.g. 2008 Beijing and 2010 London.
No, 1965 was not a leap year. Leap years occur every 4 years, with the exception of years that are divisible by 100 but not by 400.
Usually any year divisible by 4 is a leap year, with the exception that centenary years are not leap years unless divisible by 400.
The general rule of thumb is that a "leap" year occurs in each year divisible by 4 (next in 2012)
Yes. 1980 is divisible by 4, therefore it is a leap year (but note that there are exceptions to this rule at the end of a century).Yes. 1980 is divisible by 4, therefore it is a leap year (but note that there are exceptions to this rule at the end of a century).Yes. 1980 is divisible by 4, therefore it is a leap year (but note that there are exceptions to this rule at the end of a century).Yes. 1980 is divisible by 4, therefore it is a leap year (but note that there are exceptions to this rule at the end of a century).
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!
no leap years are every 4 years, where the number of the year is a multiple of 4 meaning 2016 and 2020 will be leap years. The exception to this rule being years ending in 00, these are leap years only if the preceding numbers form a multiple of 4. ie.1700,1800,1900,2100,2200,2300,2500, etc are NOT leap years but 1600,2000,2400,2800,etc are How to remember Leap Years: American presidential elections and Summer Olympics.
Basically, years divisible by 4 are leap years. There are exception at the end of a century, for example, 1900 is not 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.
Nope. To figure leap years, start with the Year 2000 (a leap year) and count either direction by fours (e.g., 1996, 1992, 1988...2004, 2008, 2012). The only exception is that century years (1900, 1800, 2100, 2200) aren't leap years unless they're evenly divisible by 400 (1600, 2400, 2800). It's a rule Pope Gregory XIII made back in 1582.
A leap yar occurs every four years. The exception is years ending in -00, where only the ones with the first two figures divisible by four is a leap year. E.g. 2000 is, but 1900 is not a leap year.
