See below.
Explanation:
Since the Sun is a gas and not a solid, it rotates differently than any planet.
The Sun rotates faster at its equator than at its poles.
It rotates once every 24 at its equator.
Yet, the Sun only rotates once every 35 days at its poles.
We know this by watching the motion of sunspots and other solar features moving across the sun.
Hope it helps (:
