Answer: Hewo, there! your Answer is Below

29.5 Or 30 Days

Step-by-step explanation:

all lunar calendar months approximate the mean length of the synodic month, the average period the Moon takes to cycle through its phases (new, first quarter, full, last quarter) and back again: 29–30 days.

Hope this helps you

Answer:

29.5 days

The Moon has phases because it orbits Earth, which causes the portion we see illuminated to change. The Moon takes 27.3 days to orbit Earth, but the lunar phase cycle (from new Moon to new Moon) is 29.5days
