The current in the first loop is 88mA,in the second loop is 40mA,

So the current across r1 is the difference between the 2 currents,that is 88m-40m=48mA

By simple logic we can find it. The current in the previous branch is 0.088. This current get split into two branches. One of them is 0.040.

So the current in the required branch is 0.088-0.040=48mA

Vasu is correct

In the answer given by Nirak kumar , Req= 1
but, its wrong. The correct formula in case of 3 r's in || is Req=R1R2R3/(R1R2+R2R3+R3R1).

So here Req will become 6/11.

0.088-0.040=0.048or 48mA
(I1=I2+I3)
SO I3=I1-I2

Total resistance Rt=(1*2*3)/(1+2+3)=1
I=V/Rt
I=48/1*10^3=48mA

Voltage across parallel resistors are same.

So voltage across R1 is 48v,

We Know i=v/r.

=48mA.
