In two separate set-ups of the Young's double slit experiment, fringes of equal width are observed when lights of wavelengths in the ratio \(1:2\) are used. If the ratio of the slit separation in the two cases is \(2:1\), the ratio of the distances between the plane of the slits and the screen in the two set-ups is:
1. \(4:1\)
2. \(1:1\)
3. \(1:4\)
4. \(2:1\)
