how many light years the earth travels around the sun

No. The Earth travels around the Sun in a measurement of time called a year, which is one revolution or trip around the sun: approximately 584,020,178 miles.

A light year is a measurement of distance that light travels in one year, which is approximately 5.88 Trillion (5,880,000,000,000) miles!
