Explanation:
For x number of resistors of resistance 176 Ω, the equivalent resistance of the resistors connected in parallel is given by Ohm’s law as:
V= IR, R= V/I
Where,
Supply voltage, V= 220 V
Current, I = 5 A
Equivalent resistance of the combination = R, given as Therefore, four resistors of 176 Ω are required to draw the given amount of current.

➤ voltage= 220V
➤ Current = 5A
➤ Resistance= 44ohm
➤ Resistance of 44ohm is required
if we have same resistors is
⇒ R = R'/n
where n is number of resistor used
Here R'= 176ohm and R is 44 ohm
⇒ n= R'/R = 176/44= 4
Number of resistors used = 4
