Mercury. As it is closest to the sun, it completes the fastest orbital rotation, in just 88 days.
Jupiter rotates once on its axis every 10 hours. The planet makes once complete rotation around the Sun every 12 years.
The fastest planet around the Sun is Mercury, which takes 88 days to orbit. The planet with the fastest rotation is Jupiter, which takes 10 hours to rotate.
The equator of the sun spins faster than its poles. This is known as differential rotation, where the sun's rotation speed varies with latitude. At the equator, the sun completes a full rotation about once every 24 days, while at the poles it takes around 35 days.
Mercury is the fastest revolving planet. The speed of a particular planet depends on its revolution around the sun as well as its rotation on its own axis. The fastest planet of the solar system with reference to revolution is Mercury. On the other hand, the fastest planet with reference to rotation is Jupiter.
One complete rotation around the Sun, or one year, is about 365.25 days.
Rotation refers to spin around the axis.

the shape of earth's orbit around the sun
Approximately 1,300 Earths could fit inside Jupiter, while about 1.3 million Earths could fit inside the Sun. Therefore, it would take roughly around 1,000 Jupiters to have the same volume as the Sun.
The Sun volume is about 1,418,364,847.22 billion cubic km, Jupiter is 1,530,600.9 billion cubic km = 926 Jupiters.
