@All.

Hi, Here it is mentioned as a voltage divider. That means, its a simple series circuit across one voltage source.

Unless otherwise mentioning the output terminals, we cannot assume that the unknown voltage is across one of the resistance or so.

I think input data in the question has to be elaborated. Correct me, if I am wrong.

24V is divided into two part each= 24/2 = 12V

V2=V1R1(R1+R2) and putting the values we get 12
