Expert Solution
Step 1

In the circuit shown in question, the resistor R2 is in series with resistor R3 and series combination is in parallel with resistor R4. The resistor R1 is in series with the complete parallel combination. Thus, the total resistance seen by the voltage source is given by:

Electrical Engineering homework question answer, step 1, image 1

The total current supplied by the voltage source is the ratio of the voltage of the voltage source and the resistance across the voltage source terminal:

Electrical Engineering homework question answer, step 1, image 2

The current flowing in resistor R1 is equal to the current supplied by the voltage source which is 0.16 A because the resistor is in series with the voltage source. To calculate the voltage across the resistor R1, apply Ohm’s Law across resistor:
