D) 1

Answered by admin @



Answer:

Option B - 8 years

Step-by-step explanation:

To find : The maximum gap between two successive leap year is?

Solution :

We know that, the leap year is omitted three times every four hundred years.

As the length of the solar year, however, is slightly less than 365\frac{1}{4} days-by about 11 minutes.

or a century year cannot be a leap year unless it is divisible by 400.

i.e. 1700, 1800, and 1900 were not leap years, but 1600, 2000, and 2400 are leap years.

Taking an example,

1896 is a leap year.The next leap year comes in 1904 (1900 is not a leap year).


Therefore,
The maximum gap between two successive leap year is 8 years.

So, Option B is correct.
