That is called the "Revolution Period of a planet" and one year on mercury equals to 88 days as compared to Earth

In short, Your Answer would be 88

Hope this helps!

Mercury is the smallest planet of the eight planets and is made up of rock and metal. One year on Mercury is only 88 Earth days. That's how long it takes for Mercury to orbit the sun. Mercury rotates very slowly, so its days are very long. A day on Mercury is 59 Earth days.
