If there are 4 ammeters in a parallel ciruit and one reads 0.8 what do the rest read?

If there are 4 ammeters in a parallel ciruit and one reads 0.8, the readings of the rest are indeterminate, because it depends on the individual branch resistance. !st answer, again, but better worded . . . Assuming that the 4 ammeters are in parallel with each other, and otherwise in a series circuit, then they all read the same.
