Why do we have a leap year and why February ends on the 28th instead of the 30th?

Question

Men's Health? oops! my bad. Operator, please move this question to the appropriate category

Answer 1

It's a convention. What does it have to do with men's health?

Answer 2

thats a very nice question but it has got nothing to do with ur health i hope.
its because a year is of 365.25 days or 365 and one fourth day.
we take a year as 365 days and the rest .25 day is not taken.After every 4 year, .25 days cummulites as a full day.hence after every 3 yrs the 4th year is of 366 days.and one day is added to the month of february and the no of days comes to 29 instead of 28.
this is y we have leap yr of 366 days.

so far as feb ending on 28 and not on 30.another questing rising in my mind is why january has 31 days and not 30,29,28 or 32 days.why do we have either 28,29,30 or 31 days in a month;why not 32 or 33 or 26 or 27.

this is what we have to accept without any questions.did u see god.if not y do u believe in god.
or why does B come after A.

Answer 3

It has nothing to do with men's health.
The time earth takes to go once around the sun is one year.
But the earth does not take an exact number of days to go around once.
The time is "approximately" 365 and a quarter days.
The extra day is added to the calender every four years in order to adjust for that "quarter day".
However, as I said it is only approximately 365 and a quarter days.
Adjustment for that is made every hundredth year.
There can be one more question now and hat is that if the year was to have 365 days on the calender, they could have made five months of 31 days and seven months of 30 days.

Answer 4

because a year is 365,and a quarter days
