The unit expressed in 660 nm of light represents the wavelength of light. If you want to determine the frequency, you use the speed of light to relate the two. The formula is:

c = λν
where
λ is the wavelength
ν is the frequency
c is the speed of light = 3×10⁸ m


Apply SI units:
(3×10⁸ m) = (660×10⁻⁹ m)(ν)
Solving for ν,
ν = 4.55×10¹⁴ s⁻¹
