Correct answer: D

Explanation

  1. A century year is a leap year only if it is divisible by 400.

  2. 1900÷4001900 \div 400, 2100÷4002100 \div 400 and 2200÷4002200 \div 400 are not whole numbers; 2400=6×4002400 = 6 \times 400, so 2400 is a leap year.

Worth noting

All four years are divisible by 4. For century years, divisibility by 4 is not enough.
