Answer:

5.65 ⋅ 10^17 photons.

Step-by-step explanation:

Your strategy here will be to use the Planck - Einstein relation to calculate the energy of a single photon of wavelength

535 nm

, then use the total energy of the laser pulse to figure out exactly how many photons were needed to produce that output.
