Mars' rotation period (the time it takes to spin once on its axis) is 24 hours 39 minutes and 35 seconds.

Mars' revolution period (the time it takes to make one orbit round the Sun) is 686.971 (Earth) days, which is the same as 1.8808 (Earth) years.
The rotation period of Mars is the time it takes to make a complete spin around its axis. (It takes a couple of minutes longer to make a complete day and night.) The rotational period of Mars is about 24 hrs and 37 mins (3% longer than an Earth Day).

The revolution period of Mars is the time it takes to make a complete orbit around the Sun and to finish a complete year. The revolution period of Mars is 687 earth days (1.67 earth years).
Similar to Earth, or exactly 24 hours, 37 minutes, and 22 seconds.

Mars rotates on its axis in about 24.6 hours, which is very close to Earth's rotation period of 24 hours. This means that a martian day (or sol) is only slightly longer than an Earth day.

One Martian Year: 1.88 Earth years = 687 Earth days = 669 Mars days.

(Note: That's the time to orbit the Sun, of course. I agree that's what the question probably means.)
