Energy spectrum of fractional quantum Hall (FQH) states is composed of single electron energy (Landau energy) neglecting the Coulomb interactions between electrons, classical Coulomb energy and the quantum energy via quantum transitions. Herein, the sum of the Landau energy and the classical Coulomb energy depends upon the value of the filling factor continuously. However, the quantum transition energy discontinuously depends upon the value of the filling factor. This discontinuity yields energy gaps in many stable FQH states. The energy gaps for specific filling factors produce the precise confinement of Hall resistance. A new experiment is considered as follows; the magnetic strength is fixed to the value to confine the Hall resistance at the filling factor of 2/3 as an example. Moreover the magnetic modulation with frequency f is applied to the system. The frequency dependence of the diagonal resistance is measured. Then, it is shown in this paper that the diagonal resistance varies drastically at some frequency value f0. We clarify the following relation between this value f0 and the magnetic strength width dB of Hall plateaus as f0 = e dB / (4 Pi m), where -e is the charge of electron, Pi =3.141592, and m is the mass of electron.
