In Fig two isotropic point sources S1 and S2 emit identical light waves in phase at wavelength

Question:

In Fig two isotropic point sources S1 and S2 emit identical light waves in phase at wavelength λ. The sources lie at separation d on an x axis, and a light detector is moved in a circle of large radius around the midpoint between them. It detects 30 points of zero intensity, including two on the x axis, one of them to the left of the sources and the other to the right of the sources. What is the value of d/λ?
