A galvanometer of \(50~\Omega \) resistance has 25 divisions. A current of 4 × 10–4 A gives a deflection of one division. To convert this galvanometer into a voltmeter having a range of 25 V, it should be connected with a resistance of:

1. 2500 Ω as a shunt

2. 2450 Ω as a shunt

3. 2550 Ω in series

4. 2450 Ω in series
