Mars has a relatively pronounced orbital eccentricity of about 9%; of the other planets in the solar system, only Mercury shows greater eccentricity. Mars' average distance from the Sun is roughly 230 million km (1.5 AU) and its orbital period is 687 (Earth) days. The solar day (or sol) on Mars is only slightly longer than an Earth day: 24 hours, 39 minutes, and 35.244 seconds.
Mars' axial tilt is 25.19 degrees, which is similar to the axial tilt of the Earth. As a result, Mars has seasons like the Earth, though Mars' are about twice as long given its longer year.

Do you mean in one mars year?
The rotation makes it very close to Earth's for a day. A little over 24 Hrs in its day also.
But it takes Mars a lot longer to travel around the Sun. Whereas Earth takes about 365 days, Mars takes approx. 687 days to travel around the sun.

There are 687 Earth days in a Martian year, but a Martian day is slightly longer than an Earth day, so there are only 669 Martian days in a Martian year.
