    0.0192A

    Explanation:

    Since, the reading of the galvanometer is 0 A, the voltage across the resistance R will be:

    Step 1

    VR = V2

    VR = 3.00v

    Step 2

    Calculating the current through the resistance R as below,

    IR = V1 - V2 / R1

    IR = 12 - 3 / 468

    IR = 0.0192A
