Hello all, first post here so be gentle
Basically by problem is that im trying to work out the current in the branches of the circuit. I understand that the branch current should be the supply voltage divided by the total branch resistance (I= V/R) but every time I try that and add both branch together to get the total current of the circuit, its coming out at twice as much as it should be. I worked out the total current to be 50mA but when I work out the branch currents and add them together, it gives me a total of 100mA. Any useful bits of information would be greatly appreciated.
