Pick the order m that has a diffraction angle of 90 degrees.
Use the formula at
http://hyperphysics.phy-astr.gsu.edu/hbase/phyopt/slits.html#c1
Then double the order number, since there are fringes on both sides of the central bright fringe.
At most, how many bright fringes can be formed on either side of the central bright fringe when light of wavelength 656 nm falls on a double slit whose slit separation is 3.45 × 10-6 m?
