\mathrm{K.E.}=\mathrm{hv}-\Phi

\begin{array}{l} \frac{\mathrm{hc}}{\lambda_{1}}=\phi+(KE)_{1} \cdot(\mathrm{i}) \\ \\ \frac{\mathrm{hc}}{\lambda_{2}}=\phi+(KE)_{2}(\mathrm{ii}) \end{array}

from (i) - (ii)

\mathrm{hc}\left(\frac{1}{\lambda_{1}}-\frac{1}{\lambda_{2}}\right)= (KE_2-KE_1)=3KE_1-KE_1=2KE_1\\ KE_1=\frac{\mathrm{hc}}{2}\left(\frac{1}{\lambda_{2}}-\frac{1}{\lambda_{1}}\right)

Now, \phi =\frac{hc}{\lambda _1}-KE_1

So, \phi =\frac{hc}{\lambda _1}-(\frac{\mathrm{hc}}{2}\left(\frac{1}{\lambda_{2}}-\frac{1}{\lambda_{1}}\right))= \frac{3hc}{2\lambda _1}-\frac{hc}{2\lambda _2}\\\Rightarrow \phi =\frac{3*1240}{2*500}-\frac{1240}{2*200}=3.7-3.1=0.6 \ eV
