basically you have to times 125 and 1.6 which will give you 200 so that is 200 kilometers

For this case, the first thing we must do is take into account the following conversion of units:
1 mile = 1.6 kilometers
Applying the conversion we have:
(125 mi / h) * (1.6 km / mi) = 200 km / h
Answer:
this speed in kilometers per hour is:
200 km / h
