The distance between Earth and Jupiter varies depending on where the two planets are in their orbits around the sun. So the time it takes to travel to Jupiter from Earth depends on the distance between the two planets at the time of launch. It also depends on the speed of the spacecraft and the path chosen. Below is a list of launch and arrival times between Earth and Jupiter for some past missions.

Jupiter is about five times farther from Earth as Earth is from the sun.
Let's see ,the distance between Earth and the sun is about 93 million miles, so the distance to Jupiter is about 500 million miles!

From the solar to Jupiter averages 5.2 AU - a mild 3 hundred and sixty 5 days is sixty 3,241 AUs. So from the solar to Jupiter is 0.0000822 mild years. Astronomers does no longer use mild years as a distance measurement for products in our image voltaic device - the mild 3 hundred and sixty 5 days is too large to be significant over short distances.

It makes more sense to measure distances for space travel in terms of travel time and not absolute distances, for the simple reason that everything keeps shifting around as the planets revolve around the sun at their different speeds rates.

Here is a fun explanation on computing "launch windows" for interplanetary voyages.

Far enough away that we won't be affected by it's radiation.
I forget how many miles though.
