How many days does each phase of the moon take?
The Moons Revolution around earth is about 30 days. So if you divide that by 8 (because there are 8 phases) you would get about 3.75 days in between each phase. That is New, Cresent, First Quarter, Gibbous, Full, Gibbous, Third Quarter, Cresent and then once it gets back to New Moon again, its starts over again.

I would expect that period of time to comprise 3/4 of a full cycleof phases, or about 22.15 days.
