There is an exact numerical answer to this question. By definition, 1 light year is exactly 9,460,730,472,580,800 meters. By definition, 1 mile is exactly 1,609.344 meters. So, 1 light year is exactly 5,878,625,373,183 and 849/1397 miles, by definition.
The light-year is a unit of length used to express astronomical distances. It is about 9.5 trillion kilometres or 5.9 trillion miles. As defined by the International Astronomical Union (IAU), a light-year is the distance that light travels in vacuum in one Julian year (365.25 days). Because it includes the word year, the term light-year is sometimes misinterpreted as a unit of time.
