Where did you get that 1000?

V = 150.
I = 650.

=> V/I = 150/650 = 0.230777.

=> R = 0.23077/1000.

=> 230 OHM.

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

I = 650 mA = 650/1000 = 0.65,

R = V/I = 150/0.65 = 230 Ω.

150v.
650ma.
R=?.

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

How come 1000 here?

Subhash said:   7 years ago
650*(10^-3) = 650 * (1/10^3).
So =650/1000.

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

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