Please help me to solve this, I don’t really know what to do.

A device requires 5 amps to operate properly.

What total resistance is needed in order to obtain 5 amps when 110 volts is applied across a circuit?

If the device has a resistance of 8 ohms, what additional resistor needs to be added to the circuit and how should the resistor and device be hooked up?

Step-by-step explanation:

Use Ohm's Law

V / R = I

I = 5A

V = 110V

R =?

Solve for R

if you need further help let me know
