By vector addition.
In fact, velocity is a vector, with a magnitude intensity, a direction and a verse, so we can't simply do an algebraic sum of the two (or more velocities).
First we need to decompose each velocity on both x- and y-axis (if we are on a 2D-plane), then we should do the algebraic sum of all the components on the x- axis and of all the components on the y-axis, to find the resultants on x- and y-axis. And finally, the magnitude of the resultant will be given by
where Rx and Rx are the resultants on x- and y-axis. The direction of the resultant will be given by
where
is its direction with respect to the x-axis.

Explanation:
Speed of waves is given as the product of the wavelength and frequency. Sometimes when frequency is not given but the period is given, we get the frequency as the reciprocal of the period. The speed of waves is given in m/s, wavelength in m while frequency in Hz.
Speed, s= fw and making w the subject of formula,
Substituting 300, 000, 000 m/s for s and 200, 000, 000 for f then we obtain that
