On a violin, the highest note Mandy can play is an A-note, which produces a sound wave with a high frequency. The lowest note she can play is a G-note, which has a low frequency.

How does the wavelength of a G-note sound wave compare to the wavelength of an A-note sound wave?

The G note has a longer wavelength than the A note
As frequency increases wavelength decreases and since the G note has a low frequency it will have a longer wavelength, and it’s the opposite for the A note- high frequency and short wavelength
