Answer:

4.

Explanation:

If the waves have similar frequency and wavelength, this means that they will reach to their maximum amplitude approximately at the same time, at any given distance from the source, provided they have exactly the same phase.

Otherwise, the interference will not be totally constructive, decreasing the total amplitude as the phase increases, until reaching to a totally  destructive interference when both waves are completely out of phase (180º difference).
