R = I÷V.
R = 650÷150.
= 230 Ohms.

Given I= 650 mA =0.65Amp.
V= 150 V.

req = R?
Solution R = V/I = 150v/0.65Amp = 230.769.

1000ma = 1A,

When we convert mili amper into amper then 1000 uses the small unit to large unit like;
650/1000 = 0.65 amper.

I=V/R
i=150/R
R=V/I
R=150/0.650
R=230.736 => 230 Ohm.

where did the 100 come from? I understand the 1000 not the 100 though.

650*(10^-3) = 650 * (1/10^3).
So =650/1000.

How come 1000 here?

150v.
650ma.
R=?.

R = v/I.
=150/(0.65),
I= 650/1000 = 0.65,
150/0.65 = 230.

Very nice explanations. Thank you all.

V =150, I = 650 mA, R = ?,

I = 650 mA = 650/1000 = 0.65,

R = V/I = 150/0.65 = 230 Ω.
