Sum-day Soon

Some people believe that January 1st 2000 was the first day of the 21st century. Other people believe that it was January 1st 2001. However, January 1st 2002 was the first ?sum-day? of the new century. When you write out that date in standard notation, it becomes 01/01/02, and 1 + 1 = 2. More generally, a sum-day is a date in which the day and month add up to the year. With that in mind:

a) What is the last sum-day of the 21st century?

b) How many sum-days are there in the 21st century?
