Answer:

0.5 A

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi,

I believe the question is incomplete. However, as per the information provided:

The simplest way to calculate the Current (unit is Amperage), is understanding the relationship between the three: Power, Voltage and Current.

<em>(Quick Tip: </em><em>W=AV</em><em>; where W -> Watts (Power), A -> Ampere (Current), V -> Volts (Voltage))</em>

Using the formula we calculate the Ampere:

W = A x V

60 = A x 120

60/120 = A (We divide the equation be 120)

0.5 = A  (Simply reduce the fraction 60/120  = 1/2 = 0.5)
