The range of visible light ranges from 400 nanometers (which is the same as 4000 Angstroms) or 4x10^(-7)cm or 4x10^(5) cm to 700 nm [or 7000Angstrons, 7x10^(7) m and so on]

this wil show yo the breakdown of the spectrum with the color
Color Wavelength (nm) Frequency (THz)
Red 780 – 622 384 - 482
Orange 622 – 597 482 - 503
Yellow 597 – 577 503 - 520
Green 577 – 492 520 - 610
Blue 492 – 455 610 - 659
Violet 455 – 390 659 – 769
take care

I guess that each answerer gives away his or her age by the choice of units in which to answer.
When I was an undergraduate, we reckoned it as from 4000 to 8000 Angstrom units, approximately, where one Angstrom unit is 10^-8 of a centimetre or 10^-10 of a metre. It was useful to remember that one Angstrom unit was the approximate spacing between the atoms in many solids.

something like 400 to 800 nanometers.
