365.256 days , which is why every four years is a leap year, we ad the four quarter days together and give Feb. 29 days.
FWIW, I know a bunch of college grads that could not tell you what directions the sun rises and sets in.

When was the first time I was wrong?

I was under the impression we add a day every 4 years then there it a little bit more on top of that. Turns out it’s a big less.

You tried to correct me twice.

I’m not perfect. I thought I made a mistake once but I was wrong.

A sidereal year is about 365.242 days.
A tropical year is about 20 minutes longer (IIRC).
Either way, the earth rotates about its axis 366.242 times per year because it has to rotate more than 360° each day-

Is our system really working as intended if a college graduate employee in a non-labor based position can make over $150K/year and not be able to answer this question?
I was sitting in a biology lecture the other day and the professor - a guy with a Ph.D. - assumed that there were about 3 billion people on the planet.

Don’t think we’re quite there yet. About 7.5 last I heard.

Perfect example of the difference between precision and accuracy.

Depends on what kind of accent you have

To answer all three of your questions. Anyone who has a fully functional brain should know how many days are in a year

I have a bunch of big rocks set up in my backyard that uses the Sun's light and shadows it casts to answer this very question.
However, my latest results indicate that in fact, the Sun is controlled by our dead ancestors now living in the Spirit World.
Turns out they are only concerned about when we should fornicate or how we might invoke them, through the Sun's rays, to heal our sick and infirm and not in the measurement of so-called 'days'...
