Resistance in the circuit should be
R = V / i
= 220 V / 5 A
= 44 Ω

Equivalent resistance of “n” resistors each of resistance R’ arranged in parellel is given by
R = R’ / n

From above
n = R’ / R
= 176 Ω / 44 Ω
= 4

∴ 4 resistors are required in the circuit.

The resistance given when 5A electric current flows with 220V line is -->

R = V ÷ I
R = 220 ÷ 5
R = 44 ohm

Given resistance - 176 ohm

n x 44 = 176
where n = number of resistors required.

n = 176 ÷ 44
n = 4

Hence your required answer is 4
