revolution = year

planets revolve around the sun, and rotate on an axis.

hence, shortest revolution is Mercury with 88hrs.
Someone already asked this question (many times), and the answer is Jupiter. That has a day equivalent to about 9.84 Earth hours.

By: 12year old.

Jupiter has the shortest "day" (period of rotation) of about 9h, 55m, 50s.

However, Mercury had the shortest "year" (revolutionaround the Sun) of about 87.97 Earth days.
