Hi, A simple question. I am studying to be an electrcian and finding the books sent to me dont explain the formula's very well.

For example, one of the questions is: An electric lamp has a filament resistance of 534 Ohms when connected to a 230V supply. The current flowing through it would be?
I have done the maths using the fomula of I = V/R and the answer is 0.430
How would this be written, for example. would the reading be 430mA (milliamp) or do I just ignor the 0. bit ??

I would e mail my tutor but last time it took over a week for them to get back in touch with me.
