Determine the voltage dropped on R3

**Problem Statement:**

Determine the voltage dropped on \( R_3 \), given:

\[ 
E_T = 2035 \, V, \ R_1 = 143 \, \Omega, \ R_2 = 147 \, \Omega, \ R_3 = 104 \, \Omega, \text{ and } R_4 = 48 \, \Omega
\]

(Round the FINAL answer to the nearest whole number.)

**Diagram Explanation:**

The image shows an electrical circuit with a total voltage (\(E_T\)) source connected in series to four resistors (\(R_1\), \(R_2\), \(R_3\), and \(R_4\)). 

**Steps to Solve:**

1. **Calculate Total Resistance (\(R_{\text{total}}\)):**

   \[
   R_{\text{total}} = R_1 + R_2 + R_3 + R_4 = 143 \, \Omega + 147 \, \Omega + 104 \, \Omega + 48 \, \Omega
   \]

2. **Calculate Total Current (\(I\)) Using Ohm’s Law:**

   \[
   I = \frac{E_T}{R_{\text{total}}}
   \]

3. **Calculate Voltage Drop on \(R_3\) (\(V_{R_3}\)):**

   \[
   V_{R_3} = I \times R_3
   \]

Follow these steps to find the voltage drop across \(R_3\) and round the result to the nearest whole number.
