Not every year which is divisible by 4 is a leap year.
An end of a century i.e..100,200,300,400,1100,1200. Has to be divisible by 400 to be a leap year.
So, from the above, Only 400, 1200 are leap years.

Because 100 is not divisible by 400. If Every century year is divisible by 400 it means it is not leap year if it can't divisible by 400 it is a leap year.
