Mph is a speed - light travels at a constant speed 186,000 miles per second. There are 3600 seconds seconds in a hour, so it travels 669,600,000 miles per hour. In a year that is about 5,878,499,817 miles.
There are only 31,536,000 seconds in a year. So, light can only travel for 31,536,000 in a year.
