@Mayur.

Can you help me by explaining how you have calculated Thevenin Voltage?

From nodal analysis,

Node voltage is 2.538v.
Current through 3.3Kohm is (2.358/3.3) * mA = .769mA.

Using superposition.

Current produced by 24V = 11.5A
Current produced by 18V = 8.7A
Resultant current ; 11.5- 8.7 =2.8
Current in R3 3.3 ; 2.8[1.2]/[1.2+3.3] = 0.75A#.

By using source transformation we get .769 as an answer.

24 - 18 = 6v.
Total current through r3.
r3 = 3.3k ohm.

I = V/R.
I = 6/3.3k ohm.
I = 1.80mA.

The voltage across r3 is24-18 = 6, and current is 6/3.3=1.8.

I got 0.769 mA through 3.3 ohms resistor using KVL, node analysis, superposition according to my view answer is .769 mAmp.

Thanks.

The correct answer is 0.769 mA. I also agree.

Let's consider a point of junction of r2 and r1 has a potential V2.
Then by KCL: ((24 - V2)/r1) = ((V2 - (-18))/r2) + ((V2 - (ground voltage 0V) )/ r3)

We get V2 = 3/38 volts,
and I through register is V2/r3 = 7.3 mA.
