The wavelength is given by:


\lambda=(v)/(f)

where v is the velocity and f is the frequency. In this case the velocity is that of the light (since we have electromagnetic radiation), and the frequency is 2.5e7, then we have:


\begin{gathered} \lambda=(3*10^8)/(2.5*10^7) \\ \lambda=12\text{ } \end{gathered}
