For this case, we have that by definition:

$v = \frac {x} {t}$

Where:

v: It's the average speed

x: It is distance traveled (movement in one direction)

t: It's time

We have to:

$x = 200 \ miles\\v = 25 \ miles \ for \ hour$

So:

$t = \frac {x} {v}\\t = \frac {200} {25}\\t = 8 \ hours$

Answer:

$t = 8 \ hours$
