    PhilB is correct, the meter should be read as 7,480 ohms (7K48).

    On a DMM, the range is not a multiplier, but a range limit. It’s not a "20,000X" range, but a range with a limit of 20,000 ohms (20K).

    So the 20K range means that the results will be in kilo ohms (so multiply the reading by 1000) and the largest resistance value that can be displayed is 20,000 ohms (20K).
