The period of revolution for Pluto (the time it takes to spin around the sun) is 247.7 earth years.
The period of rotation (a day) is 6 days and 9 hours on earth.
So relative to earth it travels much slower.
Please gimme best answer if you are going to pick one. I looked up this info just for you.

Pluto's maxiumum orbital speed is 13,536 miles per hour and Pluto's minimum orbital speed is 8,218 miles per hour. The closer that Pluto's orbit comes to the sun the faster its orbital speed. The further that Pluto is from the sun, the slower is its orbital speed.

I will have to calculate and so can you. Data are
: Pluto's average distance from the sun: 590 crore km. & time of revolution around sun: 247.7 years. Just write the nos. fully and divide 590 from 247.7. That's it.
