The output voltage changes with load resistance and it has not been given that the circuit is a closed circuit, so the output voltage will be 24 volts until and unless load is connected at output, Also voltage will not vary until and unless there is a flow current in the circuit. The calculations done in above explanation have been considered in parallel which is not correct. Even if voltmeter is connected across output the internal resistance of the volt meter will be in parallel with the two resistances of voltage divider.

He is not specifying individual divider o/p voltage. He ask only o/p voltage means 24v(consumed at series resistors).

Where we need to calculate output?

How can solve answers is 12 V brief explain.

In voltage divider circuit if the resistance are same then output will be half of input voltage.
