The time ttt may be obtained as
t=Svt = \dfrac{S}{v}t=vS , where SSS is the distance between the Sun and Earth and vvv is the velocity of light. Therefore,
t=1.5⋅108⋅103 m3⋅108 m/s=500 s=8.3 min.t = \dfrac{1.5\cdot10^8\cdot10^3\,\mathrm{m}}{3\cdot10^8\,\mathrm{m/s}} = 500\,\mathrm{s} = 8.3\,\mathrm{min}.t=3⋅108m/s1.5⋅108⋅103m=500s=8.3min.
