By applying nodal analysis.

Current entering = Current leaving.

Assume the 120 ohm branch node as v.

150 mA = ((V - 12)/270) + (V/120).

0.15 = (13 V - 48)/1080.

162 = 13V - 48.

13 V = 210.

V = 210/13 V.

Current in 120 ohm branch = V/120.

= 210/(13*120).

= 7/(13*4) = 7/52 = 0.134.

= 134 mA.

Write loop equation.

270(i1)+120(i1+i2)=12V ..........eqn-1
And i2=150mA.

Now solving eqn-1.
270(i1)+120(i1)+(120*150mA) = 12V
390(i1)+18V = 12V
390(i1) =12V-18V
390(i1) = -6V
i1 = -6V/390
i1 = -15.38mA

Now current flowing through R2 is (i1 + i2).
Therefore, -15.38mA + 150mA = 134.62mA.

Use of source transformation techniqu make will make the problem easy,120*0.15=18.00v will connected with series with 120 ohm resister and then apply kvl 120i+270i+18-12=-6/390

Do oc of current and apply ohms law so current=31ma
and sc voltage source apply current divider rule then you obtain current=103.84ma
add both you get 134ma(approx).

Use super position theorem first consider dc voltage source open current source.

So i1 = 12/270+120.

Then current source i2 = 150m*270/270+120.

I = i1+i2.

0 = V-12/270 + V/120 " 0.15,
=>(4V-48+9V-162)=0,
=>13V=210,
=>V=210/13,
=>V=16.15V,
Since, IR2=16.15/120,
=134mA.

By nodal analysis we will arrived to this equation;
(V-12)/270 + V/120 -150mA =0 .
V=16.15V.

Hence,
I2=16.15/120.
I2=1.346mA.

I1 = I2 - 0.150 ---- 1.

v = 270I1 + 120I2 ---- 2.

12 = 270(I2-0.150) + 120I2

I2 = (12+270*0.150)/390 = 134 mA.

0 = V-12/270 + V/120 + 150.
V = 16.15.

Current through R2.

I = V/R.
= 16.15/120.
= 134 mA.

0=V-12/270+V/120+150
V=16.15
current through R2
I=V/R
I=16.15/120
=134mA
