Interference of Light

The word "constructive" signifies addition in interference. Constructive interference occurs when the path of the waves that start from the slit differs by 1 entire wavelength or in the intervals of the same. Hence, the waves that are presented on the screen are in phase (crest to crest/trough to trough). The waves interfering constructively forms bright fringes on the screen.

Question

Two out of phase loudspeakers are some distance apart. A person stands 5.40 m from one speaker and 3.20 m from
the other. What is the second lowest frequency at which constructive interference will occur? The speed of sound in air is
346 m/s.
