A year that is not a leap year has 365 days. (Leap years have 366 days and generally occur every four years.) There are 7 days in a week and 52 whole weeks in a year. How many whole weeks are there in 3 years? How many whole weeks are there in 7 years? Is the number of whole weeks in 3 years three times the number of whole weeks in 1 year? Is the number of whole weeks in 7 years seven times the number of whole weeks in 1 year? Explain the discrepancy!
