A non leap year has 52 weeks plus 1 day.
A leap year has 52 weeks plus 2 days.
If James visits 15 cities per week, then he visits 15%2F7=2%2B1%2F7 cities each day
1day=%281%2F7%29week
2day=%282%2F7%29week
so, in a non leap year he would visit 15%2A52+%2B2%2B1%2F7=782%2B1%2F7 cities in a year
or approximately 782.14 cities
in a leap year he would visit 15%2A52+%2B4%2B2%2F7=784%2B2%2F7 cities in a year
or approximately 784.28 cities
