Every fourth year is a leap year to help synchronize the calendar year with the Earth's orbit around the Sun, which takes approximately 365.25 days. To account for the extra 0.25 days each year, an additional day is added to February every four years, making it 29 days long instead of 28. This adjustment helps prevent the gradual drift of the calendar with respect to the seasons. However, to refine this system further, years divisible by 100 are not leap years unless they are also divisible by 400.
