Problem

Two wavelengths of light λ1\lambda_1 and λ2\lambda_2 are sent through Young's double-slit apparatus simultaneously. If the third-order bright fringe coincides with the fourth-order bright fringe, then (1) λ1λ2=43\frac{\lambda_1}{\lambda_2}=\frac{4}{3} (2) λ1λ2=34\frac{\lambda_1}{\lambda_2}=\frac{3}{4} (3) λ1λ2=54\frac{\lambda_1}{\lambda_2}=\frac{5}{4} (4) λ1λ2=45\frac{\lambda_1}{\lambda_2}=\frac{4}{5}
