    Answer;

    = 56.96 mA

    Explanation;

    From the Ohm's law;

    V = IR, where V is the potential difference in volts, I is the electric current in amperes and R is the resistance in ohms.

    V = 4.5 volts, R = 79 Ω

    Making I the subject of the formula we get;

    I = V/R

    = 4.5 / 79

    = 0.05696 A

    But, 1 A = 1000 mA

    Thus; 0.05696 * 1000

    = 56.96 mA
