Pluto's orbital path is quite eccentric ... its minimum distance from the sun is only
about 61 percent of its maximum distance, and as we all know, a planet moves
fastest when it's nearest the sun, and slowest when it's farthest away from the
sun. But the online reference that I consulted lists Pluto's 'average' orbital speed
as 4.666 kilometers per second (2.9 miles per second), and I'm certainly neither
positioned nor motivated to dispute that.
Pluto takes about 248 Earth years to complete one orbit around the sun. That means
that since its discovery in 1930, it has covered about 1/3 of an orbital revolution.

Pluto takes about 248 Earth years to complete one orbit around the sun. It has a highly elliptical orbit, which means its distance from the sun varies significantly throughout its revolution.
Pluto's year -- the period of its revolution around the sun -- is roughly 248.5 Earth years. Pluto's day -- the period of rotation -- is 6.4 Earth days.
Pluto is no longer considered to be a planet. It takes 248 years for it to orbit around the sun.
