That would also depend on the speed. Note that sound can go at quite different speeds, depending on the medium and the temperature. Use the formula speed (of sound) = frequency x wavelength. Solving for wavelength: wavelength = speed / frequency. If the speed is in meters / second, and the frequency in Hertz, then the wavelength will be in meters.

The wavelength of sound can be calculated using the formula: wavelength = speed of sound / frequency. If the speed of sound is approximately 343 m/s, then the wavelength of sound with a frequency of 880 Hz would be approximately 0.39 meters.
