Best Answer

On the average, 365.24 days ... exactly the same as the earth's orbital period.

If it were not exactly the same as the earth's orbital period, then the moon would

either lead or lag the earth in the trip around the sun. It would certainly become

noticeable ... if not immediately, then certainly over the course of a few hundred

years. But that's not happening.
