Light travels a distance of 5,865,696,000,000 miles in a year.

Speed is the ratio of distance travelled to time taken. It is given by:

Speed = distance / time

Time = 1 year = (1 * 365 days * 24 hours * 60 minutes * 60 seconds) = 31536000 seconds

  • Speed = distance / time
  • 186000 = distance / 31536000
  • distance = 5,865,696,000,000 miles

Light travels a distance of 5,865,696,000,000 miles in a year.
