Why five and not four?
Four weeks account for exactly 28 days, so every month is guaranteed four of each weekday. February 2028 runs 29 days, one more than four whole weeks, and that spare day is a Tuesday. That is what gives Tuesday a fifth appearance, on February 29.
Five Tuesdays and the payroll question
A month with five Tuesdays matters to anyone paid weekly or fortnightly on that day, because it produces an extra pay date inside the same calendar month. In 2028 that happens in February, May, August, October, so February 2028 is one of 4 months this year.
Tuesdays in February across other years
The same month shifts forward a weekday each year, and two across a leap year, so the answer moves with it.
