Which formula used to solve the problem?

Please explain. Thank you.

Voltage division principle is used.

This way

First determine the parallel combination of R2 and RL and then find the voltage division between the resultant and R1.

RL||R2=7.5k
and
vltg drop across 7.5k s
(7.5/(7.5+2))*20=15.79...

In the Given Circuit RL=120K
So RL and R2 in parallel,
R2=8K
1/R=1/R2+1/RL
1/R=1/8+1/120
1/R=0.13333
R=7.5K
THEN R AND R1 IN SERIES SO TOTAL R =9.5K
CURRENT I =0.0021A
SO
VL = I*R VL=0.0021*7.5K
VL =15.75..

Thanks,
Karthik

RL is given as 120k

So 1st calculate the total resistance by
120k||8K=7500
then 2k+7500=9500

N
v=ir
20=i*9500
i=20/9500=2.1052exp-3

Now by current division rule
current through RL will be say
I2=i*8k/(8k+120k)=1.315exp-4
again
v=ir

So say voltage across RL be v2
v2=1.315exp-4*120k
=15.79v

same can be solved using voltage division rule

8*120/8+120 =7.5k
v=20*7.5k/7.5k+2k
=20*15/19
=300/19
=15.79v

Very simple procedure,

Step 1:Find parallel combination of 8K & 120K = 7.5K
Step 2:Now 2k &7.5k are in series so total resistance=9.5k
Step 3:Find ct I=20v/9.5k= 2.105mA,
Step 4:find drop across 2K is 2.105m*2K=4.2V
Step 5:Finally Vl=20-4.2=15.8v.
