As we discussed in

I_{G}=0.2 \%\:of\:I\:\:\:=\frac{0.2}{100}I\:=\:\frac{1}{500}I

Current through the shunt

I_{S}=I-I_{G}=I-\frac{I}{500}=\frac{499}{500}\:I

I_{G}S=I_{S}S\:\:\:=>\:\frac{I}{500}G=\frac{499}{500}S\:\:\:\:\:S=\frac{G}{499}

Resistance of ammeter RA is

\frac{1}{R_{A}}=\frac{1}{G}+\frac{1}{S}\:\:\:\:\: = \frac{1}{G}+\frac{499}{G}=\frac{500}{G}

\therefore B_{A} = \frac{G}{500}
