Here's the thing: Jupiter's orbit is *larger* than Mercury's orbit. This means Jupiter travels a much greater distance around the Sun than Mercury.
Here's why:
* Distance from the Sun: Jupiter is much further away from the Sun than Mercury. This means it has a much bigger path to travel around the Sun.
* Orbital Period: Because of its distance, Jupiter takes much longer to complete one orbit around the Sun. Mercury zips around the Sun in just 88 days, while Jupiter takes a whopping 12 Earth years!
