5.6 K Ohm = 10 V.

4.7 K Ohm = ?

4.7*10/5.6 = 8.3928571 V.

v1/r1 = v2/r2.
10/5.6 = x/4.7.

x = 8.39.

Voltage in 4.7 kv = 4.7 k*i.

i = Voltage in 5.6k/5.6k.

i = 10/5.6 k A.

v in 4.7 k = 4.7 k*10/5.6 k.

= 8.39 V.

R1+R2 = 5.6+4.7 = 10.3 K.
I = V/10.3.

V1 = 10V = 5.6XV/10.3.
V = 10X10.3/5.6 = 18.39.

Voltage across 4.7 K = 8.394.

I is same in series:

So, I = v1/r1 = 10/5.6 = 1.8.

v2 = I*r2 = 1.8*4.7 = 8.4.

current across 5.6 kohm register =10/5.6*1000=0.00178 A
so,voltage across 4.7 Kohm =.00178*4.7=8.3A

Because in series circuit current through the both the resistors is same so that we can multiply the 5.6k ohm resistor's current with 4.7 K resistor.
