Four ammeters with identical internal resistances $r$ and a resistor of resistance $R$ are connected to a current source as shown in figure. It is known that the reading of the ammeter $A_1$ is $I_1 = 3\ A$ and the reading of the ammeter $A_2$ is $I_2 = 5\ A$ . Determine the ratio of the resistances $R/r$ .
