Mars is approximately 230,000,000 km from the Sun. The speed of light is around 300,000 km per second. Therefore light will take approximately 12 minutes and 47 seconds.
Confidence votes 87. Mars is roughly 1.5 Astronomical Units (AU) from the Sun (1 AU is the distance from the Sun to the Earth). In ball park estimates, it takes 8 minutes for light to travel 1 AU. So when Mars is at the closest to Earth at 0.5 AU, Mars is 4 light minutes from Earth. The farthest distance Mars is from Earth is 2.5 AU, when Mars is on the other side of the Sun from Earth (1 AU from Earth to the Sun + 1.5 AU from the Sun to Mars). At that distance Mars is 20 light minutes from earth.
