There are several Pre-defined Resistance in Multimeter and you can set your knob according to it.
If the knob is set at 200k ohm and you are measuring the Resistance and you are getting the reading as 150 then
How would one interpret the reading ,150 Ohm or 150,000 Ohm?

It would be 150,000 Ohms.
The display should show a "k" somewhere indicating that all the numbers shown need to be multiplied by a factor of 1000.
It's best to choose a setting that's greater than the resistance you're measuring, but as close to it as possible.
For instance, if you're measuring 150 ohms, set it to 200 ohms. If you're measuring 1500 ohms, set it to 2 k ohms.

If the number is not followed by a "K" (X1,000) or "M" (X1,000,000) - the number represents the actual Ohms indicated.

Use the diode testing option. It will show around 400 to 600
