Yes. Venus takes 243 days to spin on its axis relative to the background stars, while it takes 224.7 days to orbit the sun. Although its spin on its axis is longer that its orbital period, an apparent day is 116.75 days, since it spins in the other direction to Earth and most other planets. So a year is less than two apparent or solar days.

One interesting fact about Venus is that a day on Venus is actually longer than a year on Venus. A Venusian day lasts 243 days, and a year is 224 days. That means that the day on Venus is 19 days longer than the year.
Solar day (24 hours for the Earth): about 116.75 Earth days. Sidereal day (rotation period, about 23 hours and 56 minutes for the Earth): about 243 Earth days. Year: about 224.7 Earth days.
they are less than
Saturn. This is untrue. Both Mercury and Venus have shorter orbits and therefore take less time to orbit the Sun, because they are the two planets closer to the Sun then Earth. Saturn is further from the Sun and takes much longer to orbit it.
Because Venus has less distance to travel than the Earth and is travelling faster. With an orbital speed of 35.02 km/s and an orbital period of 224.70069 days gives an orbital distance of 679,883,169.35km The Earth has an orbital speed of 29.78 km/s (Slower than Venus) and an orbital period of 365.256 days gives an orbital distance of 939,800,765.95km
yes a year on Venus is less than 2 days
Venus takes 225 days to orbit once around the Sun. This makes one year on Venus less than one year on Earth.
Less than the earth's time It takes about 225 Earth days to orbit the Sun.
I want to start by correcting you. First off a year on Venus is not less than two days. In fact a year on Venus is 224.7days. However, the reason it is so much shorter than earth is purely based on it's location. The further a planet is from the sun, the larger it's orbit is. The larger the orbit, the longer the year. That is why Venus has a short year. It has a smaller orbit around the Sun.This answer still needs improving. So here goes.A year on Venus IS less than 2 VENUS days,but not less than 2 EARTHdays of course. There are two main definitions of a "day" in astronomy, buteither way the Venus year is less than 2 Venus days.

A day on Mars is less than an hour longer. Venus and Mercury have far longer days.
It is shorter Than it's day! 288 days
A year on Venus is shorter than a year on Earth, but a "day" on Venus is much longer than a day on Earth. I'm not sure exactly what you were trying to ask, but that should about cover it.
None. Venus has the longest rotation period of 243 days, less than a year.
Venus orbits the sun in approximately 225 Earth days. (224.70069 days)Strange as it may seem, Venus rotates so slowly that a "day" on Venus is longer than its year. It takes Venus about 243 Earth days to spin once on its axis. The slow rotation is also in a "retrograde" (clockwise) direction, from east to west.how long does it take for venus to orbit the sun
The Venus year is less than 2 Venus days.Because Venus rotates very slowly clockwise, the opposite direction of most planets, the "day" on Venus is caused by its orbit of the Sun. It takes Venus 243 Earth days to turn once on its axis, but only 225 Earth days to circle the Sun. The result (if you could see it through the thick clouds) would be an apparent noon-to-noon "day" of about 117 Earth days in length.So the Venus year (around the Sun) is about 1.92 apparent solar days on the planet.
Mercury and Venus. Venus is the planet which takes less then a year to orbit the sun, it takes 224.7 earth days.
