Two ammeters X and Y have resistances of 1.2Ω and 1.5Ω respectively and they give full scale deflection with 150 mA and 250 mA respectively. The ranges have beeen extended by connecting shunts so as to give full scale deflection wih 15A. The ammeters along with shunts are connected in parallel and then placed in a circuit in which the total current flowing is 15 A. Calculate the current in amperes indicated by ammeter X.
