How many years does it take for a solar eclipse to come round?

Answer 1

Over the average of many years, there are 2.3 of each kind of eclipse per year,

both solar and lunar.

During the 20th Century (1901 to 2000) there 229 solar and 230 lunar eclipses.

Answer 2

There are typically between 2 and 4 solar eclipses (of all types) in a year.

In fact, the average is close to 2.4 per year.

There must be at least 2 each year.

Rarely, we can get 5 in one year.

There is a total eclipse about 2 times in every 3 years. Of course total eclipses can only be seen from a small area of the Earth.

So, at any particular place they are quite rare.

Answer 3

There are on average about 2 solar eclipses per year.

Answer 4

On average, a solar eclipse can occur somewhere on Earth every 18 months. However, the same location might not experience a solar eclipse for several years or even decades.
