In an experiment to find the resistance of a galvanometer by the half-deflection method, a $5 V$ battery and a high resistance of $4.9 k\Omega$ are connected in the circuit. In the absence of any shunt resistance, the galvanometer reads $20$ divisions when current flows in the circuit. To reduce the deflection by half, the value of the shunt resistance used is $98 \Omega$. The figure of merit of the galvanometer is given as $..... \mu A / \text{division}$.
