complete one orbital revolution around the sun.
a year.
One "year", roughly 365.25 days.
The time required for one complete revolution of the earth in its path around the sun ... often popularly referred to as the "year" ... is not an integral multiple of the time required for one complete rotation of the earth on its axis ... popularly referred to as the "day". There are 365 full days in the year, but that leaves the earth some 6 hours short of reaching the point in its orbit at which it began the year. A good approximation to remember is 365.24 days.
The time required for the Earth to rotate once on its axis is called a day. This rotation takes approximately 24 hours to complete.

On Earth, a year is the time Earth takes to travel once around the Sun. The term "year", applied to other planets, may either refer to a standard Earth year, which is a very convenient unit of time, or to the time the planet takes to go once around the Sun. As an example, a "year" on Jupiter takes about 12 Earth years.
Jupiter takes 12 Earth years to orbit the sun.4,331.572 days or 11.85920 year
