The Earth completes a full orbit around the Sun once every year. The Earth has existed for approximately 4.5 billion years or so, which means that it has 'gone around the Sun' around 4.5 billion times.
Between 3 months (for Mercury) and 165 years (Neptune). For comparison, the planetoid Sedna takes over 10,000 to go once around the Sun.

Once.
one time.
once, that is what determines a day
the moon takes 24 hours to spin once on its axis and the earth spins Anticlockwise No, the moon takes around 28 days to rotate once on its own axis. However, using the moon as an analogy is a fine way to help think through how many times the earth rotates on its own axis in one year. As we all know, one side of the moon always faces the earth. If you were on the moon, you would see no "days" go by relative to the earth, so-to-speak, loosely, if you see what I mean. Then, if the earth moved around the sun like the moon moves around the earth, with one side always facing the sun, besides being mighty hot on one side, during one year (one revolution around the sun) it will have rotated one time on its own axis, and yet you would see no sunrise or sunset. So, zero "days" equal one revolution. Therefore 365 days equal 366 revolutions on its own axis during one year, and that is the answer. Try a dime and a quarter on the table to help visualize it. Also, remember, the anticlockwise thing (or counter-clockwise) depends on whether you are looking at the earth from "above" the north pole or "below" the south pole.
The International Space Station orbits Earth every 90 minutes. So 24/1.5 = 16 times per day times 365 = 5,840 times per year.
The earth is tilted 23.5 degrees
Believe it or not, days and years are based on those movements!It takes the Earth 1 day to rotate around his own axis.The Sidereal rotation period depends on the rotation of the Earth relative to the fixed distant stars (not the Sun) and is 0.99726968 days or 23 hours 56 minutes and 4.100 seconds.It takes the Earth 1 year (365.25 days, ergo the leap year) to orbit around the sun.
31.
There are 31 days in August.
Once, it is in a synchronous orbit with Earth
The earth spins on its axis completely once a day and it revolves around the sun completely once a year.
In a year it rotates 366¼ times on its own axis (relative to the stars) plus once around the Sun.
It takes roughly 6.4 Earth days for Neptune to rotate on it's axis.
It takes earth exactly one day to rotate around the axis.
About .997 days per full earth rotation on its own axis.
Mars rotates on its axis in 24.6 earth hours = 1.025 earth days.
about 63 earth days
234 years
364.5 times as it takes that many days to revolve around the sun and the earth spins once every twenty four hours.
