That depends on what you mean by a "business session."
The Supreme Court year is called a Term (begins on the first Monday of October and ends the first Monday of October in the following year). Terms are divided into sittings, two-week rotations in which the court is either actively hearing arguments followed by two weeks of administrative work when they write opinions.
The US Supreme Court receives approximately 8,000petitions for writ of certiorari (appeals request) from federal and state courts each year. They can only accept 1-2% of these cases for review because of the tremendous amount of time and work involved in researching and deciding cases.
The justices choose approximately 70-85 cases to hear each Term.
The justices hear 12-18 cases per two-week sitting, or 1-2 cases per day for three days of each sitting from October through the end of April.
