To determine the number of weeks it will take Miley to save enough money for the boots, we can use the following formula:

\[ \text{Total amount saved} = \text{Amount saved per week} \times \text{Number of weeks} \]

Given:

  • Cost of boots = $150
  • Amount saved per week = $25

Setting up the equation, we want to find the number of weeks (let's call it \(w\)) that satisfies:

\[ 25w = 150 \]

To solve for \(w\):

\[ w = \frac{150}{25} = 6 \]

Thus, it will take Miley 6 weeks to save enough money to buy the boots.
