Because Jupiter is a gas giant planet, the rotation of the atmosphere does not necessarily correlate withe the rotation near the core. The equatorial clouds make one spin every 9.84 Earth hours, while the poles are slower at 9.93 Earth hours, and the magnetic field (core) only a tiny bit faster than that.

The term "day" is not really applicable because there is no actual surface on which to stand to observe a sunrise or sunset -- long before hitting rock, an object falling onto Jupiter would strike a deep layer of (very very hot) liquid gases. Below the outer cloud layers, the atmosphere is either dark or extremely dim.

However, applying the periods observed for the equatorialcloud layers, the "Jupiter day" of 9 hr 50.5 Earth minutes, compared to the year which is 4331.572 Earth days (11.86 years) produces a figure of :

A year on Jupiter is the amount of time for Jupiter to make one full revolution around the sun. The "year" on Jupiter takes 4331.57 Earth days (11.86 Earth years).Because Jupiter spins much faster than Earth, its day is as little as 9.84 Earth hours. This works out to 10,563 "Jupiter days" in a "Jupiter year."
