Diffraction of light

In physics, the term diffraction is defined as the bending of light around the corners of the obstacle. As a light ray passes by an aperture, it bends around the edges or through slits, it spreads out through a narrow opening. The diffracted light will produce fringes of bright and dark or colored bands which are labeled as a diffraction pattern.

Question

8. How many (whole) bright fringes will be produced on an infinitely large screen if orange light (A = 590 nm) is incident
on two slits that are 10.0 um apart?(The 3% margin of error does not apply for this question)
