Single Choice

In the circuit given below, find the total current drawn from the battery:

A$$\dfrac{3}{24}$$
B$$\dfrac{14}{25}$$
C$$\dfrac{9}{32}$$
Correct Answer
D$$\dfrac{3}{20}$$

Solution

$$R_{eq} = 45 + \dfrac{25}{3} = \dfrac{135 + 25}{3} = \dfrac{160}{3}$$

$$i = \dfrac{V}{R} = \dfrac{15}{\dfrac{160}{3}} = \dfrac{9}{32}$$
