Is this 8th grade science or what? Watts = volts X amps
so W=(143/4)(2/5)=14.3watts

With this information you can only calculate how much power is being consumed by this resistance.
Power being consumed by the resistance is simply the product volts times amperes. In this case it is
(143/4)volts*(2/5)amperes=286/20watts=143 watts.

Volts = Watts x Amps
143/4 = Watts x 2/5
Watts = 143/4 x 5/2 = 715/8 = 89 3/8 Watts (89.375 Watts)

Solving for watts
The formula for watts is:
W = VI
Watts equals volts times amperes
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
Information from the above statement
143/4 = volts
2/5 = amperes
w = Watts
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
143/4 = w 2/5
143/4 x 5/2 = w 2/5 x 5/2
715/8 = w
89.375 = w
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
The answer is 89.375 watts is being produced

14.75 Volts * 0.2 amps = 2.95 watts.
P = V*i
P is power, V is voltage, I is current.
If the numbers I used are not the ones you meant, just recalculate....
