A harmonic wave is traveling along a rope. The oscillator that generates the wave completes 40.0 vibrations in 27.0 s. A given maximum of the wave travels 455 cm along the rope in a time period of 10.0 s. What is the wavelength?

Use the wave equation

frequency*wavelength=velociyt

You are given the frequency (40/27) and velocity (4.55m/10s)
