The velocity of light in vacuum is 299,792,458km/s, for daily calculation it's considered as 300000km/s,
so put the distance and "C"(velocity of light) in speed and distance equation and you will get the answer.

[time=distance/speed]

What evidence do we have that light travel through a vacuum?

You create a vacuum in a lab, and then shine a light through it, and there is experimental proof that light travels through a vacuum. Alternatively, take the fact that light travels through space - if light could not travel through a vacuum, no light from the stars, the moon or the sun would ever reach our planet.
