Numerical - Galvanometer deflection & sensitivity for given parameters of Wheatstone bridge

Q.  The resistances of the various arms of Wheatstone bridge are P = 500 ohm, Q = 50 ohm, R = 1010 ohm and S = 100 ohm. The emf of the batter is 5 V and the current sensitivity of galvanometer is 8 mm/μA. If the internal resistance of the galvanometer is 80 ohm then the deflection of galvanometer and the sensitivity of the bridge in terms of deflection per unit change of resistance are
