Year: Going once around the Sun takes 12 of our years, since Ganymede accompanies Jupiter.
Day: It takes 7 of our days to orbit Jupiter once; like many moons, its rotation is synchronous, so that is also how long it takes to rotate once around its axis.
Ganymede's year is the same as Jupiter's, since it is a satellite of that planet. However, it orbit's Jupiter every 7 days, 3 hours, and 42 minutes, and 33.2 seconds.
Ganymede takes about 7.2 Earth years to orbit the Sun once.
A solar year on Ganymede, Jupiter's largest moon, is approximately 172.5 Earth days. This is the time it takes for Ganymede to complete one orbit around Jupiter.
It takes Ganymede approximately 7 days to complete one orbit around Jupiter.

Ganymede's year is the same as Jupiter's, since it is a satellite of that planet. However, it orbit's Jupiter every 7 days, 3 hours, and 42 minutes, and 33.2 seconds.
One Ganymede day is approximately 7 Earth days. Ganymede, Jupiter's largest moon, has a longer day due to its slower rotation compared to Earth's.
Jupiter's Ganymede is the largest moon in the solar system. It takes exactly the same amount of time to rotate on its axis as it does to revolve around Jupiter, which is a little over 7 days.
Ganymede takes about 7.2 Earth years to orbit the Sun once.
A solar year on Ganymede, Jupiter's largest moon, is approximately 172.5 Earth days. This is the time it takes for Ganymede to complete one orbit around Jupiter.
It takes Ganymede approximately 7 days to complete one orbit around Jupiter.
One year on Ganymede, which is a moon of Jupiter, is equivalent to about 7.15 Earth days. Ganymede's orbit around Jupiter is much shorter than Earth's orbit around the Sun, which takes approximately 365.25 days.
They aren't. A day is 24 hours long and a year is 365 days long, which is 8760 hours in a year.
night time:193c to -135f Day time: -113c to -183c
The orbital period of Ganymede around Jupiter is 7.154 Earth days, or about one Earth week.
Ganymede isn't "hidden"; it is just too close to Jupiter to see it without a telescope. When Galileo pointed his telescope at Jupiter, he was astonished to find four other small things that appeared to stay close to Jupiter. They were named Ganymede, Callisto, Europa and Io, and are sometimes called the "Galilean moons". Day by day, you can see them orbiting Jupiter, their positions different each day.
Ganymede does not orbit the sun. It orbits Jupiter, which orbits the sun. Ganymede orbits Jupiter every 7.15 days. Jupiter orbits the sun every 11.86 years.
