Three voltmeters A, B and C have the same range but different resistances `R_(A)`=`1200Omega`, `R_(B)= 1000Omega`` and `R_(C)=800 Omega. A is connected in parallel to C and B is connected in series with the combination of A and C. When the combination of ABC so formed is connected across a constant potential difference `V_(ab_)` meter A reads 4.8V and meter B reads 10 volts. What will be the reading of each meter when they are all connected in series across the same potential difference `V_(ab)`?
