How Many Minutes Does It Take An Electromagnetic Wave To Travel From The Sun To Earth?

I’m curious to know how long it takes for an electromagnetic wave to travel from the sun to earth. I know that light travels at a speed of 186,000 miles per second, but I’m not sure how long it takes for the light to reach us from the sun. I understand that the sun is 93 million miles away from the earth, so I’m wondering if anyone can help me understand how long it takes for the electromagnetic wave to reach us from the sun. Any help or insight would be greatly appreciated.
