A) 1 only
B) 1 and 2 only
C) 1 and 3 only
D) 3 only
Correct Answer: D
Solution :
The Islamic calendar has 354 days and the leap year has 355 days. This means that the normal Islamic year is 11 days shorter and leap year is 10 days longer than the Gregorian calendar. The Islamic calendar began in 622 AD (and not in 632 AD). The Gregorian calendar is a solar calendar because it is based on the earth's revolution around the sun.
