Well I know that I \propto \frac{1}{1-k}, where I is the signal on the detector. But I can only guess how I is dependent on the number of fuel elements(increases by an order of magnitude for each 10 rods?) .

I usually do not ask for this kind of stuff, but this time I really have no way to verify if this is correct(and it has to be). So here it goes: On a subcritical nuclear reactor with 100 fuel elements we read the signal of 10e-9 A. When we add 10 more fuel elements, signal jumps to 10e-8 A. How...
