1 year = 365.242199 days.
As we cannot have a percentage of a day, the extra .24 days are added together to give us the extra day we have every 4 years - a leap year, added on February 29. To find out if any year is a leap year the last 2 numbers will be exactly divisible by 4.
Even adding this extra day every 4 years does make the period of a year accurate. To further refine it, if the century can be divided by 4 it will not be a leap year. Hence the year 2000 was a leap year, but because it was a leap century ( the whole century could be divided by 4) an extra day was not added on Fenbruary 29. The next leap century is not until 2400!

I assume you mean Earth days and an Earth year.
There are 365.256 Earth sidereal days in one Earth year (366 in a leap year which is every 4 years).
Sidereal means one orbit in relation to the fixed stars.
This is the number of days based on the day being 23 hours, 56 minutes, and 4.09 seconds long (again based on the Earth's rotation with respect to the stars).
Well, you wanted "exactly".
