To be exact the Earth Day is not 24 hours it is 23 hours 56 minuets and 4 seconds. That's the Earth's rotation time.

Yes, that's the length of the "sidereal day". However the length of the

"solar day" IS exactly 24 hours. That's the time for the Sun to complete

one apparent journey around the sky.

Comment: That answer is for the Earth. Unfortunately, it's not clear which planet this question is about.
