Answer 1

29

Answer 2

29

Answer 3

Introduced in 1582, the Gregorian calandar states that there will be a leap year every fourth year, but with some stipulations. Century years will not be leaps years (i.e. 1700, 1800, etc.) unless they can be evenly divided by 400, such as 1600 and 2000. Therefore, in 1600, because it was a century year and a multiple of 400 would be a leap year. Therefore, I agree that February of 1600 had 29 days.

Answer 4

The Gregorian calendar, the current standard calendar in most of the world, adds a 29th day to February in all years evenly divisible by 4, except for centennial years (those ending in -00), which receive the extra day only if they are evenly divisible by 400. Thus 1600, 2000 and 2400 are leap years but 1700, 1800, 1900 and 2100 are not.

Answer 5

29. While leap years occur every 4 years, leap centuries occur every 4 centuries. Century years do not have a leap day, so 1900 and 2100 will have Februaries with 28 days. The year 2000 had a February with 29 days, as did 1600 and will 2400. Good question.

Answer 6

some teacher of mine told me that
if a year is evenly divisible by 4
its a leap year

1600 is definitely divisible by 4
which give a whole number
i.e. 400

therefore the month of february in 1600
was a leap year
had exactly 29 days

Answer 7

29; since the year 1600 is a leap year (multiple of 4)

Answer 8

Its hard to tell the calendar has changed a couple of times since 1600

Answer 9

But many nations had not yeat adopted the Gregorian calander by 1600, so it may have been different back then.

Answer 10

29, every year divisible by 4 is a peap year and every year ending in 00 is a leapyear
