A radio can tune to minimum frequency, $v_{1}=7.5 MHz =7.5 \times 10^{6} Hz$

Maximum frequency, $v_{2}=12 MHz =12 \times 10^{6} Hz$

Speed of light, $c=3 \times 10^{8} m / s$

Corresponding wavelength for $v_{1}$ can be calculated as:

$\lambda_{1}=\frac{c}{v_{1}}$

$=\frac{3 \times 10^{8}}{7.5 \times 10^{6}}=40 m$

Corresponding wavelength for $v_{2}$ can be calculated as

$\lambda_{2}=\frac{c}{v_{2}}$

$=\frac{3 \times 10^{8}}{12 \times 10^{6}}=25 m$

Thus, the wavelength band of the radio is $40 m$ to $25 m$.
