### Electrical Circuit Problem

**Problem Statement:**

The circuit below has three parallel resistors \( R_1 = 4 \, \text{K}\Omega \), \( R_2 = 6 \, \text{K}\Omega \), and \( R_3 = 12 \, \text{K}\Omega \). The supply voltage is 24 Volts. What will be the total current of the circuit?

**Circuit Diagram:**

- The diagram shows a voltage supply (\( V_{\text{supply}} \)) connected parallel to three resistors: \( R_1 \), \( R_2 \), and \( R_3 \).
- Connection is such that each resistor is directly across the voltage supply.

**Options:**

- \( \circ \, 36 \, \text{mA} \)
- \( \circ \, 10 \, \text{mA} \)
- \( \circ \, 12 \, \text{mA} \)
- \( \circ \, 25 \, \text{mA} \)
