The eccentricity of an orbit is not measured in days. The excentricity is a numeric value between 0 (for a perfect circle) to 1 (for an extremely prolonged elipse).

The Earth has an eccentricity of 0.01671123. Where 0 is a perfect circle, and 1 is a parbola. So by that it has a low eccentricity.
The orbit of the Moon is distinctly elliptical with an average eccentricity of 0.0549. The orbit of the Earth is distinctly elliptical with an average eccentricity of 0.01671123.
The Earth's orbit is close to being a circle. So, the ellipse is one with a small "eccentricity".
All planets orbit the Sun in an elliptical orbit. An elliptical orbit is defined as having an eccentricity of between 0 and 1. (0 is a circular orbit). Anything over 1 is defined as a hyperbolic orbit.Mercury has the highest eccentricity of .205630 whereas the Earth has a near circular orbit with an eccentricity of 0.0167.Triton, a moon of Neptune has lowest eccentricity with a value as close to 0 as can be measured.
Venus has an eccentricity of 0.00677323 Neptune has an eccentricity of 0.00858587 Triton, a moon of Neptune, orbit is as close to a perfect circle with an eccentricity of 0.000016 The Earth for comparison has an eccentricity of 0.01671022
0.016710220 is the Earth's orbital eccentricity
The eccentricity of the Earth's orbit is currently about 0.0167; that rounds to zero.
The Earth has an eccentricity of 0.01671123. Where 0 is a perfect circle, and 1 is a parbola. So by that it has a low eccentricity.

No, the moon's orbit is elliptical with an eccentricity of about 0.55
The Earth's orbit is almost circular. Technically, the "eccentricity" of the orbit is about 0.0167.

Earth has an average eccentricity in its orbit of 0.0167. This compares with 0.0068 for Venus and 0.205 for Mercury, which are the minimum and maximum eccentricities in the eight planets. So, the Earth's orbit is not too far from circular. In order of increasing eccentricity, the list of planets is: Venus Neptune Earth Uranus Jupiter Saturn Mars Mercury.
