\(d \sin \theta = \left( m + \frac{1}{2} \right) \lambda\)
Where m = 0, 1, 2, 3

Equation for position of light fringes (maxima)
\(d \sin \theta = \left(m \right) \lambda\)
Equation for position of dark fringes (minima):
\(d \sin \theta = \left( m + \frac{1}{2} \right) \lambda\)
Where m = 0, 1, 2, 3

Note:
Monochromatic light (light of a single wavelength): interference pattern consists of regularly spaced bright and dark fringes.
White light (a mix of all wavelengths): each color produces its own set offringes, but at slightly different positions because of its unique wavelength creating a rainbow effect.
