Problem

A voltmeter of resistance r1r_1 and an ammeter of resistance r2r_2 are connected in series across a battery of negligible internal resistance. When a resistance rr is connected in parallel to the voltmeter, the reading of the ammeter increases three times while that of the voltmeter reduces to one third. Find r1r_1 and r2r_2 in terms of rr.
