Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

It's quite simple actually, you see, what light years basically means is how many years light takes to travel from point a to point b. So here it says that a galaxy is 200 million light years away. So since that light is 200 million years away, it would take 200 million years until that light reaches us.
