Best answer
Correct Answer - Option 2 : 0.05% of the full range

Concept:

The resolution (R) in an N bit DVM is given by: 

 \(R= \frac{1}{{{{10}^N}}} \;\)× range of the voltmeter

Where N is the number of full digits.

In a DVM, a full digit counts 0 to 9 and a half digit counts from 0 to 1.

For N and half DVM resolution (R) is given by: 

\(R= \frac{1}{{2\times{{10}^N}}} \;\)× range of the voltmeter

Calculation:

Given that,

N = 3(1/2)

\(R = \frac{1}{ 2 \times 10^3}\) × of the full range

%R = (1/2000) × 100 × of full range

%R = 0.05 % of full range

 By applying the  \(R= \frac{1}{{{{10}^N}}} \;\)× range of the voltmeter

Which will give 

%R = (1/1000) × 100 × of full range

%R = 0.1 % of full range

Will be INCORRECT as it is only applicable for 3 digit voltmeter.
