Mercury orbits the sun in 88 days because it is so close to the sun, 67,910000 KM from the it (to get the distance in miles divide it by 1.6 or .16 I forgot).
Mercury orbits the sun because the sun is the closest to Mercury so they orbit
it is closser to the sun wich makes it faster to orbit
it rotates slowly and orbits quickly.
Mercury takes almost exactly 88 Earth days to orbit the Sun.
Mercury at 7 degrees. This is why Mercury is able to orbit the Sun more quickly than the other planets.
mercury, it only takes 88 days. The closer the planet is to the parent star (sun in our case) the less time it takes to complete one orbit. Mercury is the closest planet to the sun and the planet to take the shortest time to orbit it.
why do you need to know
it rotates slowly and orbits quickly.
Mercury takes 87.969 days to orbit the sun.
Mercury's orbit around the sun is approx 364 million km long.
Mercury takes almost exactly 88 Earth days to orbit the Sun.

Mercury travels in a 'circular' orbit around the Sun, just as the Earth does. How can it pass the Sun? If you mean leave it's orbit, the Sun's gravity will pull Mercury in and 'melt it.
because it is nearest to the sun
