There are about 365.2422 days in an average actual tropical year. Adding an extra day to 97 out of every 400 years makes the average Gregorian calendar year 365.2425 days. So Gregorian has only 97 leap days by adding a day every four years (considering a year has 365.25 days) but then leaving out a leap day in any year 100 that is not 400.

almost everything... The major difference between the two calendars is the Julian calendar has 100 leap years in every 400 years, and the Gregorian calendar has 97 leap years in every 400 years. That makes the average length of a Julian calendar year 365.25 days and the average length of a Gregorian calendar year 365.2425 days. As a result, it takes only about 128 years for the Julian calendar to accumulate a full day of error, but for the Gregorian calendar to accumulate a full day of error takes about 3200 years.
