In this problem we will use the formula: f = c/λ

Wherein: f = frequency
c = speed of wave
λ = wavelength of wave

500 km/h / 200 km = 2.5 Hz

In this problem, speed and the distance between crests are given. Therefore, all you have to do is to divide the speed by the wavelength to determine the frequency using the formula provided.
