Question
**Problem Statement:**

Determine the following for the given electrical circuit:

1. Total resistance, \( R_t \)
2. Total current, \( I_t \)
3. Voltage across each resistor: \( V_1, V_2, V_3, V_4 \)

**Diagram Explanation:**

The circuit diagram consists of a 24 V battery connected to four resistors arranged in a combination of series and parallel networks. 

- \( R_1 = 100 \, \Omega \) and \( R_2 = 250 \, \Omega \) are connected in parallel.
- \( R_3 = 350 \, \Omega \) and \( R_4 = 200 \, \Omega \) are also connected in parallel.
- The parallel pairs are connected in series with each other.

The goal is to calculate the total resistance of the circuit (\( R_t \)), the total current supplied by the battery (\( I_t \)), and the voltage across each resistor (\( V_1, V_2, V_3, V_4 \)).
