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

In a Young's double-slit experiment, the seventh dark fringe is located 0.022 m to the side of the central bright fringe on a flat screen, which is 1.1 m away from the slits. The separation between the slits is 1.20 10^-4 m. What is the wavelength of the light being used?
