Correct answer: A
Leap year rule: A year is a leap year if it is divisible by 4, except that years divisible by 100 are not leap years unless they are also divisible by 400.
Step 1: If the year is divisible by 400 → leap year.
Step 2: Else if divisible by 100 → not a leap year.
Step 3: Else if divisible by 4 → leap year; otherwise not a leap year.
700: divisible by 100 but not by 400 → not a leap year.
800: divisible by 400 → leap year.
1200: divisible by 400 → leap year.
2000: divisible by 400 → leap year.
Therefore, 700 is the only year among the options that is not a leap year.
