Why is 2028 a leap year?
A year is a leap year if it's divisible by 4 (with century exceptions). 2028 ÷ 4 = 507, so it qualifies — adding 29 February to keep the calendar aligned with Earth's orbit around the Sun. The previous leap year was 2024; the next after 2028 is 2032. For the full rule, see is 2026 a leap year?.
