Assume one person is born every day. In 100 years, there will be 25 leap years. So 25*1 additional people will be born on these days. So, total people born will be = $$365 imes 100 imes 1 + 25 imes 1$$
And people born on 29th february = $$25 imes 1$$
Hence percentage will be = $$frac{25 imes 1}{365 imes 100 imes 1 + 25 imes 1} imes 100$$ = 0.0684
