The bleeder resistor value has already been calculated by several above. What I have to inject into the conversation is that the resistor has NO practical function in the circuit The only thing it does is eliminate the charge on the capacitor when it is disconnected. In theory, you could cut the resistor completely out. In practice, it is strongly advised not to. I personally have seen an industrial motor capacitor burn halfway through a 1/4" screwdriver. The resistor is there to prevent such a situation.
Usually, a single phase motor cap. will "get weak", losing its' capacity to hold sufficient charge. On occasion, it will fail "shorted". In such a situation, the top of the cap will be turned into a cinder or blown off. If it fails "open", the resistor is the only thing between the start winding and power. In such cases, it will often simply vaporize.
There are times it is necessary to check a cap with an ohm-meter. The prefered practice is to use an analog (moving needle) meter. A digital meter can be used, but the changing digits are difficult to resolve, looking like a series of "8s". A low value, below 5K (5000) ohms can distort the measurement taken. In the case of a good capacitor, such distortion is irrelevent. If one is marginal, the distortion can make it look bad.
If the contraction RPC is to name a "rotary phase converter", I apologize. I have been chatting away about small motors. An RPC is just a big (relative) 3 phase motor and a handful of capacitors. The same comments will apply.
