Principle of meter bridge:-

It works on the principle of balance condition of the Wheatstone bridge.

Circuit diagram of meter bridge ;

When, the jokey is moved along the wire, at one position of jokey, the galvanometer will show no deflection.

let the distance of the jokey from the end A at the balanced point be l_{1} then 

\frac{P}{Q}=\frac{R}{S}

\frac{R}{S}=\frac{l_{1}}{100-l_{1}}                     \left ( \because p=l_{1}\; \; and\; \; Q=100-l_{1} \right )

Hence, R=S\left ( \frac{l_{1}}{100-l_{1}} \right )
