e+60=\frac{\lambda }{4}\rightarrow e q\text { (1) } \\
e+45=\frac{3\lambda }{4} \rightarrow e q(2)

dividing by eq (1) and (2)

\frac{e+60}{e+45}=\frac{\frac{\lambda }{4}}{\frac{3 \lambda}{4}}

\frac{e+60}{e+45}=\frac{\lambda }{4} \times \frac{4}{3 \lambda} \\

\frac{e+60}{e+45}=\frac{1}{3}

(e+60) 3=e+45 \\

3 e+180=e+45 \\

3 e-e=45-180 \\

2 e=-135 \\

e=\frac{-135}{2} \mathrm{~cm}

 or\,\,\,e=\frac{-135}{2 \times 100}=\frac{-135}{200} \\

e=-0.675 \mathrm{~m}
