The rotation of the Earth refers to the spinning of the Earth on its axis, which takes approximately 24 hours to complete. This rotation gives rise to day and night as different parts of the Earth face towards or away from the sun. On the other hand, the revolution of the Earth refers to its movement around the sun in an elliptical orbit, which takes approximately 365.25 days to complete. This revolution gives rise to the changing seasons throughout the year.

How many rotations does the eath complete in one revolution?

There as different meanings for rotation and revolution. In this context a revolution can be the turning of body on its axis. In which case one revolution would be the same as one rotation. That is, there would be one rotation in one revolution. A revolution can also be the movement of a body in orbit around another body. For example, the Earth makes roughly 365 rotations during one revolution around the Sun.
