Thank you @Ashutosh Sharma.

120 : 160 : 24 : x.
x = 160 * 24/120,
x = 32.

Just apply the formula V1/I1 = V2/I2 then we will get the answer.

Logically you are right @Raghu.

Change 120mA to 0.12A.

Then solve for R. R = (24/0.12) = 200 ohms.

So, it would be R = 200 ohms, I = 0.16A. V = IR = (0.16)(200) = 32 v.

Ohm's law applies.

V1/V2=I1/I2.

Thanks @Mani.

The resistance is constant.
