With a resistance '$X$' connected in series with a galvanometer of resistance $100 \Omega$, it acts as a voltmeter of range $0 - 15 \text{ V}$. To double the range, a resistance of $1500 \Omega$ is to be connected in series with '$X$'. The value of '$X$' in $\Omega$ is

  • A
    $1000$
  • B
    $1200$
  • C
    $1400$
  • D
    $1600$
