Friday the Thirteenth
The Gregorian calendar 
follows a pattern of leap years which repeats every 400 years. Thereare 4,800 months in 400 years, so the 13th of the month occurs 4,800 times in this interval. The number of times the 13thoccurs on each weekday is given in the table below. As shown by Brown (1933), the thirteenth of the month is slightly morelikely to be on a Friday than on any other day.
| Day | Number of 13s | Fraction |
| Sunday | 687 | 14.31% |
| Monday | 685 | 14.27% |
| Tuesday | 685 | 14.27% |
| Wednesday | 687 | 14.31% |
| Thursday | 684 | 14.25% |
| Friday | 688 | 14.33% |
| Saturday | 684 | 14.25% |
