If $n$ represents the actual number of deflections in a converted galvanometer of resistance $G$ and shunt resistance $S$,then the total current $I$ when its figure of merit is $K$ will be:

  • A
    $\frac{KS}{(S + G)}$
  • B
    $\frac{(G + S)}{nKS}$
  • C
    $\frac{nKS}{(G + S)}$
  • D
    $\frac{nK(G + S)}{S}$
