If you mean revolutions or rotations around its axis as defined by the frame of reference provided by the Sun, it's about 365 and 1/4 per solar year.

Earth's rotation causes day and night. Relative to the Sun, we rotate 365 and a quarter times in one year - thus we have 365 and a quarter days in one year. (One year is the time it takes Earth to orbit around the Sun.)
Relative to the stars, however, Earth rotates 366 and a quarter times in one year.
If Earth didn't rotate at all relative to the Sun (so half of Earth would be in permanent daylight, and the other half would be in permanent darkness), it would make one rotation a year relative to the stars.

The earth doesn't make CIRCLES around itself. It rotates. Object on the earth make circles. On aveage one object on earth makes 365 circles in a year.

The earth rotates 365 times in a year ( or 366 in a leap year). It rotates one complete rotation around the sun in a year. I'm not sure if that is what you are asking.

365. It takes 1 day to do a circle and there are 365 days in a year.

Well it rotates once a day.... so 365. And it take 365 days for it to circle the sun once.
