Light of Differing Wavelengths on a Diffraction Grating

Visible light passes through a diffraction grating that has 900 slits per centimeter, and the interference pattern is observed on a screen that is 2.68 m from the grating.

In the first-order spectrum, maxima for two different wavelengths are separated on the screen by 2.66 mm . What is the difference between these wavelengths? (give asnwer in meters)

A diffraction grating is made up of slits of width 360 nm with separation 1300 nm. The grating is illuminated by monochromatic plane waves of wavelength ? = 720 nm at normal incidence. (a) How many maxima are there in the full diffraction pattern? (b) What is the angular width of a spectral line observed in the first order if the grating has 1000 slits?

An 18mm wide diffraction grating has rulings of 390 lines per mm. monochromatic light of 487 nm wavelength is incident normally on the grating.
