The correct answer is: 1010
Given: $\Delta \mathrm{I}_{\mathrm{C}}=1 \mathrm{~mA}=10^{-3} \mathrm{~A}$ $\Delta \mathrm{I}_{\mathrm{b}}=15 \mu \mathrm{A}=15 \times 10^{-6} \mathrm{~A}$ $\mathrm{R}_{\mathrm{L}}=5 \mathrm{k} \Omega=5 \times 10^{3} \Omega$ $\mathrm{Ri}=330 \Omega$ The voltage gain of an amnl
The voltage gain of an amplifier
$\begin{array}{l}
\mathrm{A}_{\mathrm{r}}=\frac{\Delta \mathrm{I}_{\mathrm{C}} \times \mathrm{R}_{\mathrm{L}}}{\Delta \mathrm{I}_{\mathrm{b}} \times \mathrm{R}_{\mathrm{i}}} \\
=\frac{10^{-3} \times 5 \times 10^{3}}{15 \times 10^{-6} \times 330} \approx 1010
\end{array}$
