I am not agree because voltage reduced after any resistance.

Chintan said:   1 decade ago
Total power=12.

All resister in series.

So, p=12/4.

P=3w.

In series, four resistors equal power also equal dissipate.

Manoj said:   1 decade ago
If those resistors are in parallel what is the answer?

Total power =12 W.

12 = 4P.
P = 3W.

Total power =12.

W/R = 12w/4R = 3W.
