That depends, what wave you are talking about. The general relationship is: speed (of the wave) = frequency x wavelength. Solving for frequency:
frequency = speed / wavelength
If you are talking about an electromagnetic wave in a vacuum, the speed is about 300,000,000 meters/second. Other waves, however, can have quite different speeds.

What is the wavelength of a wave with a frequency of 5 Hz and a speed of 25 M's?
Simply using the relation wavelength = velocity / frequency So required wavelength = 25/5 = 5 m
Calculate the frequency of a wave having a velocity of 15 m s and wavelength of 3 m?
(frequency) = (speed) / (wavelength) = (15 m per sec) / (3 m) = 5 per sec = 5 Hz.
What is the wavelength of a wave with velocity of 50 ms and a frequency of 5 Hz?
10 m
What is the speed of a water wave having a wavelength of 2m and a frequency of 0.2hz?
For any wave, the speed of the wave is the product of its frequency and of its wavelength.
What is the velocity of a wave that has a wavelength of 5.0 m and has a frequency of 7.5 Hz?
Wave-Speed = (wavelength) x (frequency) = (5.0 m) x (7.5 per second) = 37.5 m/sec
