I = V/R, we get answer as 0.2 ohms.

But we want to answer in terms of mA so, converting Ohms into mA.

I =0.2 Ohms= 2*(10^-1)*(10^-2)*(10^2) =2*(10^2) mA = 200 mA.

As per formula v =IR and in question we have voltage = 24 volt. And R = 120 ohms.
So, I = 24/240 = 2/10 = 0.2.
Now answer in milliampere 0.2 * 10^3 = 200 MA.

I = V/R

= 24/120
= 0.2 A

We have mA so divide & mult by 10^-3
= (0.2*10^-3)/10^-3
= 2000*10^-3
= 200mA

Milliampere unit is 10^-3. Then how this answer is 200ma?

I = v/r

= 24/120
= 0.2 in milliampere
= 200 mA

how can this ans. is correct
please explain

I= V/R.
I= 24/120,
I=0.2 A or 200mA.
