Form Bohr’s formula for hydrogen atom, 1λ=R1n121n22,R=1.097×107m1

For Lyman series: 

1λmin=R1=R  n2=andn1=1

1λmax=R114=3R4n1=2,n1=1

λmaxλmin.=43R1R=13R=304given

For paschen series: 

λ'min=R19andλ'max=R19116=7R16×9

λ'minλ'max=16×97R9R=817R

or,λ'max=λ'min=817R=817×3R=81×37×304

13R=304A

 For Pachen series, λ'max=λ'min=10553.14
