It takes approximately 88 Earth days for Mercury to orbit the Sun.

87.969 Earth days is a more precise answer. The parameters of orbital mechanics were pretty accurately mapped out by Sir Isaac newton in the 17th century. Fundamentally, he described the equations by which an orbiting body will sweep out a given area of its orbital ellipse in a given period of time, which places extremely precise limitations on orbital speed.

How many days in mercury days is 7 down here on earth?

It takes Mercury 1407.6 Earth hours to make one full rotation around its axis. To find the number of days on Mercury that equals 7 on Earth, you would have to first convert this value to days:1407.6 hours = 58.65 daysSo, if 58.65 days on Earth = 1 day on Mercury, where the variable x represents the number of days on Mercury that equals 7 on Earth, then:1/x=58.65/71/x=8.38x= 0.119 days.Thus: For every 7 earth days, there is 0.119 Mercury days.
