The answer will depend if you mean 800 nautical miles (as would often be used in relation to knots) or 800 normal miles.

If 800nm (nautical miles) then the answer is simply 800/5 = 160 hours.

If normal miles then we can answer by making a conversion from knots to mph first. 5 knots = 5 * 1.15077945 = 5.75389725 mph

Thus time = 800/5.75389725 = 139.036 hours (accurate to 3 decimal places).
