Prove that the gregorian calendar repeats itself every 400 years.

The calendar obviously has an integral number of years and months in 400 years. If it has an integral number of weeks, then it will repeat itself after that time. The rules of the calendar eliminate a leap year in 3 out of the four century years, so there are 97 leap years in 400 years. The number of excess days of the week in 400 years can be found by ...

(303·365) mod 7 + (97·366) mod 7 = (2·1 + 6·2) mod 7 = 14 mod 7 = 0

Thus, there are also an integral number of weeks in 400 years.

The first day of the week is the same at the start of every 400-year interval, so the calendar repeats every 400 years.

NeTakaya
The lowest common denominator is 9/90 and 14/90, multiplying 1/10 by 9/9 and 7/45 by 2/2. I am assuming you know how to solve for LCD? If you don't I can explain in comments.
