A galvanometer has a resistance of 3663 Ω. A shunt S is connected across it such that 1/34th of the total current in main circuit passes through the galvanometer. The external resistance that must be connected in series with the main circuit, so that the total current in the main circuit remains unaltered before and after the galvanometer is shunted is,
