What is the wavelength of light having a frequency of 4.8X10^14 s^-1 (c=3.0X10^8m/s)?

What are the steps to calculate the wavelength of light with a frequency of 4.8 × 10¹⁴ s⁻¹, given that the speed of light (c) is 3.0 × 10⁸ m/s? Additionally, could you clarify what "c" represents in this context? Thank you in advance for your help—I'm preparing for my chemistry exam!

the general equation is v = f lambda

where v is speed in m/s, f is frequency in Hz (s^-1) and lambda is wavelength in m

but c is the speed of light

so

c - f lambda

3.0E8 = 4.8E14 *lambda

lambda = 6.25E-7 m or 625 nm
