Solving Problems with Ohm’s Law
There is a 120 V circuit in a house that is a dedicated line for the dishwasher, meaning the dishwasher is the only resistor on that circuit line. If the dishwasher draws 18 A of electricity, what would the resistance of the dishwasher be? Round the answer to the nearest hundredth of an ohm.

Use Ohm’s law: V = I·R, so R = V / I = 120 V / 18 A = 6.666666... Ω.
Rounded to the nearest hundredth: 6.67 Ω.
