The resistance of an ammeter is $13\, \Omega$ and its scale is graduated for a current upto $100$ $amps$. After an additional shunt has been connected to this ammeter it becomes possible to measure currents upto $750$ $ampere$ by this meter. The value of shunt-resistance is 
  • A$2 \,\Omega $
  • B$0.2 \,\Omega $
  • C$2 \,k\Omega $
  • D$20 \,\Omega $
