In Mark 1:13, the story of Jesus going into the wilderness, where he was ministered by angels is an allusion to Elijah (1 Kings 19:5-7) who was ministered by an angel and in the wilderness forty days. There is no actual suggestion that Jesus fasted for this time, but those familiar with the story of Elijah are likely to have assumed he did do so.
Matthew and Luke both explicitly say that Jesus fasted during the forty days in the wilderness.
In John's Gospel, there is no mention of Jesus going into the wilderness or of him fasting for forty days. Instead, he returned to John the very next day and, on the third day, attended a wedding at Cana.
In the Matthew 4 account of Jesus' temptation, in verse 2 it states, "After fasting forty days and forty nights, he was hungry."
So the answer is 40 days, and 40 nights.
After Jesus was baptized by John, he was lead out by the spirit into the wilderness for 40 days and 40 nights to fast.
Our Lord Fasted for about 40 days. That is also the approximate time that Lent lasts.

The Cross is symbolic in all of the various denominations of Christianity. According to the Gospels of the New Testament, Jesus Christ, the Son of God, was crucified on a cross, was buried, and rose again in a period of three days. The crucifixion was a divine act of sacrifice, Jesus was a sacrifice for the sins of the world, and yet rose again. Thus, anyone who accepted him as their Lord could achieve eternal life. The cross is used today as a ceremonial reminder of christ's sacrifice.
Jesus resurected three days after being crucified and put in the tomb
