If it is auto-ranging, there is no set-up - that's what auto-ranging means.
A multimeter is used to measure various properties of electricity. The "multi" refers to it multiple functions which can range from volt meter, current meter, resistance meter. The most common use would depend on the users preference to what is needed and measured most frequently.
You measure a house fly in millimeters
A typical multimeter measures voltage and resistance "in parallel" or current in-line with the circuit. It all depends on the model. 'Multi' means many different modes. Some have more than others. Some multimeters can measure current, but require you to alter the lead configuration and plug into different sockets. If you have the meter set for Current measurement and you put it in parallel instead of series, it will cause a dead short and could damage the meter. (They usually have a fuse inside for protection). Knowing any two of the three parameters you can calculate the third by Ohm's Law: Voltage = Current x Resistance. Knowing Current and Voltage you can calculate power as Volts x Amps = Watts for resistance loads.
I would use meters.
The correct answer would be 40.44.

A multimeter set to measure current (in amperes) would be used to measure current flowing in a circuit. The multimeter needs to be connected in series with the circuit to accurately measure the current.
Current is measured in amps so the setting on a multimeter would be A Measuring current with a multimeter is only to be done by someone with training because it can be very dangerous It is much better to measure current with a clamp meter
A multimeter set to measure current (in amperes or milliamperes) would be connected in series to the resistor to measure the current flowing through it. The multimeter would be placed in series with the resistor to accurately measure the current passing through it.
Current.
To measure the resistance of a component, you can use a multimeter set to the resistance (ohms) setting. Simply connect the two leads of the multimeter to the ends of the component, ensuring that there is no power running through the component. The multimeter will then display the resistance value of the component.

To measure current, you would typically use a multimeter set to the appropriate current measurement range. First, ensure the circuit is off, then connect the multimeter in series with the part of the circuit you want to measure the current flowing through. Turn on the circuit to get a reading of the current flowing through that part of the circuit. Remember to set the multimeter to the correct range for the expected current to avoid damaging the meter.
I would imagine that reversing the leads would rectify that. (No pun intended.)
Besides not dropping it, you prevent damage to a multimeter by never connecting it to a circuit that it is not intended to measure. Two examples... If you are in a 0.6 milliamp range you would not want to connect the meter to a 6,000 volt focus pin in a television set. If you are in ohms mode, you would not want to connect the meter to a circuit that has voltage present.
A multimeter is an instrument commonly used to measure the properties of an electrical circuit. It can measure properties such as voltage, current, and resistance in the circuit. Multimeters are versatile tools that are essential for troubleshooting and testing electrical systems.
They are called test leads, you would use them to connect the multimeter to the points that are to be tested.
