it depends on your connection speed, usually hours with a good connection, otherwise can be days, the whole blockchain it's like 150/170GB so have patience and check if you have enough disk space before starting it :)

If you are using a fast/new computer and fast/stable internet connection it could take you an hour or two depending on the speed of your connection, and that is if you are already have Bitcoin core before. If you have just installed Bitcoin core it might take you 1-2 days with a reliable internet connection. It is better to have SSD rather than HDD as your storage it can also help to reduced the syncing time and also have a good RAM maybe 4-8gb. If you are using an old computer to sync Bitcoin core, I don't know how long will it take but definitely will take long even you have fast internet connection.
