JEE Main 8 January 2020, Shift 2, Physics Q20

Question 20 of 75 in this shift, Physics question 20 of 25, Section A.

A galvanometer having a coil resistance 100 Ω100\ \Omega gives a full scale deflection when a current of 1 mA1\ \mathrm{mA} is passed through it. What is the value of the resistance which can convert this galvanometer into a voltmeter giving full scale deflection for a potential difference of 10 V10\ \mathrm{V} ?
