Answer:

the first overtone is 200 Hz

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation of the first overtone would be given below:

The following formula should be applied

n_1 = n_3 ÷ 3

= 300 ÷ 3

= 100 Hz

Now n_2 is

= 2 × 100

= 200 Hz.

Hence, the first overtone is 200 Hz

we simply applied the above formula and the same would be relevant
