Let after t hours , the two men are 200 miles apart .

So the distance travelled by first man is

= 6t miles

And distance travelled by second man is

= 10 t miles

So the equation is

$6t + 10 t = 200 \\ 16t = 200 \\ t = \frac{200}{16} = 12.5 hours$

Therefore after 12.5 hours , they are at 200 miles apart .
