The moon rotates on its own axis about once every 27 1/3 days which coincides with the time it takes the moon to complete its orbit around earth. This is why the same surface of the moon always faces earth, and why, therefore, there is a "far side of the moon".
Three and a half or so; the Moon rotates one time in 27.5 days. The time between full moons is longer than that, because while the Moon is going around the Earth precisely once, the Earth has kept going around the Sun - and it takes the Moon another couple of days to catch up to be in the same relative position.
27.32 days = 1 moon rotation
92 days = 3.367 moon rotations
The moon revolves around the Earth one time every twenty four hours, or in a day. In 92 days, the moon with revolve around the Earth 92 times.
The moon will make approximately 3¼ revolutions around the Earth in 92 days.
3.3675 (rounded)
The moon rotates on its axis once each 27.32 days. It also completes
one orbital revolution around the earth in exactly the same time.
On the lunar month once. That's why we only can see one side of the moon because it's is always rotating away from us.
About 27 1/2 days.
3.37 times (rounded)
27.3 Earth days, approximately.
27.32 days (rounded)
The Moon revolves round the Earth and rotates on its own axis once every 27.3 days.
Exoplanet GJ 1214 b takes about 52.7 (+- 5.3 ) days to rotate on its axis.
Mercury rotates once in about 58.6 Earth days.
The rotation of the moon, or the time it takes to rotate on it's axis exactly once, is 27.322 days (rounded), and the moon's orbital period, or the time the moon takes to complete one full revolution around the Earth, is exactly the same. That's why the Moon appears to always show the same face. We see the same side of the moon and never get to view the far side from Earth.
Earth's moon does rotate on it's axis but it does it once each orbit of the Earth: every 27.3 days .
27.32 days (rounded)
The moon spins once on its axis every month; one sidereal period around earth is equal to one complete rotation on its axis. If the moon did not rotate, all of its surface would be visible from earth over the course of a month.

No, only once. Exactly.
The moon does rotate on its axis as the earth does. The earth rotates once in a day and the moon rotates once in a month ( for those who want to quibble, it's a little more than 27 days ). ADD---the moon rotate at the same speed of the earth, that why we always see the same side of the moon which give the impresion that the moon doesnt rotate but it does!
no. it does not but it does go around every 27.3 days
The Moon revolves round the Earth and rotates on its own axis once every 27.3 days.
Exoplanet GJ 1214 b takes about 52.7 (+- 5.3 ) days to rotate on its axis.
24 hours
You always see the same side - as the moon takes the same time to orbit the earth as it does to rotate once on its axis !
No. The moon rotates once for every orbit it makes around Earth.
