1900 had 365 days although it is divisible by 4, so there is no February 29 in 1900. It is one of the dropped leap years of the Gregorian Calendar.

i dont actually know off the top of my head, but you can figure it out. first let me say there are 365 1/4 days average in a year, kasi a day is actually 23hrs 56 min vice the normally accepted 24, due to inaccuracy of time keeping and measuing devices when the standard was derived some distant time in the past, as a result they decidedin order to fix that they needed to leave out the partial day three of those years and add a whole day the fourth year, and chose the end of february, arbitrarily as a time to add it. consequently february has 28 days for three years and 29 in leap year. so you must first determining when the most recient leap year was, simply check calanders, that you may still have laying around and subtract 1900 from the most recient leap year and divide the number of years by 4 to determine the leap years. check your answer by considering the fact that there must be three normal 365 day years inbetween each leap year where there are 366 days. there are never 367 days in a year on this planet. and never have been to my knowledge atleast since they started using the current callender, around 2000 years ago i think. anyway youll learn more by figuring it out than by sitting and waiting while i do.

There were 365 days. Even though the year is evenly divisible by 4, the usual test for leap years, a year is closer to 365.2425 days than it is 365.25. If we use the traditional 365.25, that extra 3/400's of a day each year means that we'd pick up an extra 3 days every 400 years. To avoid that, the rule is that a year is a leap year if it's evenly divisible by 4, but not unless it's also evenly divisible by 400, thus eliminating 3 days every 400 years. Since 1900 is not evenly divisible by 400, not a leap year. 2000 was evenly divisible by 400, so it was.

There were 365 days in 1900. It was not a leap year. Years ending in 00 are only leap years if divisible by 400.
