Monochromatic plane waves perpendicularly illuminate a small circular hole in a screen. From point-P, beyond the hole

Question:

Monochromatic plane waves perpendicularly illuminate a small circular hole in a screen. From point-P, beyond the hole on the central axis, exactly 3 Fresnel zones appear to fill the hole. If the incident irradiance on the aperture screen is Iu, prove that the irradiance at P is very nearly 4Iu. Because these are plane waves, the unobstructed irradiance at P would equal Iu.
