Two resistors are in series: a 5.6 k
resistor and a 4.7 k
resistor. The voltage drop across the 5.6 k
resistor is 10 V. The voltage across the 4.7 k
resistor is

The easy method:
V1/r1 = V2/r2.
So,
5.7/10 = 4.7/v2.
1.785*1000 = v2/4.7.
0.001785*4.7 = v2 .
V2 = 8.394.
V1/r1 = V2/r2.
So,
5.7/10 = 4.7/v2.
1.785*1000 = v2/4.7.
0.001785*4.7 = v2 .
V2 = 8.394.

Current flowing through all resistance in series is same.
In this question value of one resistor and voltage is given so we can find out the value of current.
10/(5.6*10^3) = 0.001785.
Voltage across 4.7 k ohm is V = IR : 4.7*10^3 * 0.001785 = 8.394.

current will be same for both the register because it is in series,
so if we consider current across the registers is I,
Soby I=V/R;
I=10/(5.6*1000)=0.001786A
So Voltage across 4.7 kohm register:
V=0.001786*(4.7*1000)=8.394V
so if we consider current across the registers is I,
Soby I=V/R;
I=10/(5.6*1000)=0.001786A
So Voltage across 4.7 kohm register:
V=0.001786*(4.7*1000)=8.394V
