earth takes 365 days 6 hours and 56 minutes ,Right? to make a leap year?

 no, earth takes 365 days and 6 hrs every year to revolve once around the sun.in 4 yaers, 6hrs *4 = 24 hrs, which makes one day thus 365 days + 1 day = 366 days. so leap year occurs every 4 years and that one day is added to february.

Hello everyone,
 
Let me put the answer more accurately.
Our earth takes exactly 365 days, 6 hours, 9 minutes and 9 seconds to complete one revolution. It takes almost 4 years for the 6 hours, 9 minutes and 9 seconds to make one day. So, after every 4 years the length of a year becomes 366 days. This is the leap year.
