There are approximately 3652 days in 10 years. Here’s a breakdown:
- We typically assume a year has 365 days.
- However, every four years is a leap year, which has 366 days due to an extra day added in February to account for the Earth’s rotation around the sun.
- Over 10 years, there will be 2 leap years (since 10 divided by 4 is 2 with a remainder of 2).
- Therefore, to calculate the total number of days, we do:
Number of days = (Years * Regular days per year) + Leap years
Number of days = (10 years * 365 days/year) + 2 leap years
Number of days ≈ 3650 days + 2 days
Number of days ≈ 3652 days
So, while 10 years has 10 * 365 = 3650 days on paper, accounting for leap years brings the total closer to 3652 days.
