In a $YDSE$,light of two different wavelengths $(\lambda_1, \lambda_2)$ is incident normal to the plane of slits. The $n^{th}$ maxima of $\lambda_1$ coincides with the $m^{th}$ maxima of $\lambda_2$ exactly in front of one of the slits. Given $D = 1.5 \ m$,$d = 3 \ mm$,and $4500 \ \mathring{A} < \lambda_1, \lambda_2 < 7000 \ \mathring{A}$,then $n, m$ and $\lambda_1$ are:
