- In series, if the resistance is the same, you can just multiply the voltage by 2. So, the total voltage across the circuit in series is 12 + 12 = 24w.
- In parallel voltage will be the same so the total voltage for the 4.7kohm resistor will also be 24w.
- In parallel voltage will be the same so the total voltage for the 4.7kohm resistor will also be 24w.

Since the voltage is same in parallel. Here, in this case, the voltage drop across 3. 3kohm is 12V. So both are same resistor 12+12=24v.

In series I is same but in parallel VTG is same.
VTG drops across 3.3k 12 and vtg drop at 3.3k is 12, 12+12 = 24, then vtg in parallel is same means vtg at 4.7k is 24v
VTG drops across 3.3k 12 and vtg drop at 3.3k is 12, 12+12 = 24, then vtg in parallel is same means vtg at 4.7k is 24v

The series combination Circuit should have two 3.3k resistor and One 4.7 k resistor but One 3.3k take 12V, So series resistance are equal resistance hence the voltage added (12+12=24), the parallel is voltage same so the answer is 24.

12v/3.3k = 3.64mA.
Other 3.3k have 3.3k * 3.64 mA = 12v.
Now voltage add 12+12 = 24.
This 24 will acros 4.7k.
Other 3.3k have 3.3k * 3.64 mA = 12v.
Now voltage add 12+12 = 24.
This 24 will acros 4.7k.

KVL can be used, since all voltages in one loop is = 0 then we have two equal R and of them has 12 voltage drop.
- 12 - 12 + 24 = 0.
- 12 - 12 + 24 = 0.

Two resistances are equal therefore there voltage drop are equal.therefore the total voltage drop in the series resistance is(12+12=24V).
Now this is in parlel wid da series i.e voltage wil b same but current diff.thus ans=24V.

Given data:
Two 3.3 kohm resistor so=6.6 kohm
then
3.3=12v
4.7=?
So,
12/3.3=3.6
Then 3.6*6.6=23.84 appx=24 v
Two 3.3 kohm resistor so=6.6 kohm
then
3.3=12v
4.7=?
So,
12/3.3=3.6
Then 3.6*6.6=23.84 appx=24 v
