In the context of your question, a "Day" is defined as the time it takes for a planet to rotate once on its axis, that is (for a solar day) the time between the instant that the sun is, for example, directly overhead, to the next time the sun is directly overhead. Since each planet rotates at a different rate, each planet's own "day" is different. Only Mercury and Venus have days that are "many" times longer than Earth. Mar's day is 1.03 times longer than Earth's, and the outer planets actually have days that are shorter than Earth's, that is, they rotate very rapidly.
