The Galileo Spacecraft was launched October 18th, 1989, and entered the orbit of Jupiter December 7th, 1995. The total trip time was reduced by gravity slingshots past Venus and Earth, making the total trip time a little over six years.
How long it takes to go from Eartt to Jupiter depends on where the two planets are when you start out, how much acceleration you can create and what orbital path you choose to follow.
Even on a straight line, Jupiter is at least 590 million kilometers from Earth and could be as far as 966 million kilometers, and you cannot travel on a straight line between the two.
For example, it would take at least 2 and a half years to reach Jupiter with a space shuttle at its orbital speed of 17,500 mph.
How many light years away is Jupiter from Earth when there closest?
There are 4015 earth days in a Jupiter year. jupter's year is equal to 11 earth years. 365 times 11 equals 4015.
Approx 1000 earths would fit into Jupiter
from wiki - 11 years
With no solid surface, or seasons, and multiple moons, the concept of "months" or lunar cycles cannot be applied to Jupiter. In Earth terms, Jupiter's year is 11.86 Earth years, or 142.32 Earth months.

There are 11.86 Earth years in one Jupiter year, so there would be about 4,330.9 Earth days in one year on Jupiter. Taking leap years in consideration, of course.
10,475.8 Jupiter days are in a Jupiter year.
11.86 Earth years
Jupiter takes 11.8618 Earth years to orbit the sun once
There are 4332.71 Earth days in a year on Jupiter.
The "year" on Jupiter takes 4331.57 Earth days (11.86 Earth years).
a year on jupiter is 12 earth years long
There are 4015 earth days in a Jupiter year. jupter's year is equal to 11 earth years. 365 times 11 equals 4015.
It takes about 11.9 Earth years for Jupiter to orbit the Sun. (Jupiter rotates on its axis once in about 9 hours and 50 minutes.)
It takes about 11.86 years for the planet Jupiter to orbit the sun. That is equivalent to about 4,332 earth days.
