Detailed Solution

Days in non-leap year = 365 days
Total weeks in a year= 52
Dyas in 52 weeks
= 52 x 7
= 364 days
So, we have 1 extra day. It can be any day from the 7 days of a week. Thus, total outcome is 7.
Now we need Sunday for 53rd Sunday, Thus, favorable outcomes are 1. So, the required probability,
P=Favorable outcomeTotal outcome
P=17
