Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
D Correct answer
Explanation

When Britain adopted the Gregorian calendar in 1752, 11 days had to be skipped to correct the accumulated drift. September 2, 1752 was followed directly by September 14, 1752, meaning September 3-13 never occurred in the British calendar that year. February dates are unrelated to this change. Option D is correct.
