Light travels at 186,000 miles per hour, and the Earth orbits about 93,000,000 miles from the Sun. When you do the math, you find that the Sun's light takes about 500 seconds to reach the Earth.
There are 60 seconds in one minute, so the Earth is about 8.3 light-minutes away from the Sun.
Approximately 500 seconds
