Two wavelengths of light $\lambda_1$ and $\lambda_2$ are sent through a Young's double-slit experiment simultaneously. If the third-order bright fringe of $\lambda_1$ coincides with the fourth-order bright fringe of $\lambda_2$,then

  • A
    $\frac{\lambda_1}{\lambda_2} = \frac{4}{3}$
  • B
    $\frac{\lambda_1}{\lambda_2} = \frac{3}{4}$
  • C
    $\frac{\lambda_1}{\lambda_2} = \frac{5}{4}$
  • D
    $\frac{\lambda_1}{\lambda_2} = \frac{4}{5}$
