For a parallel connected resistor R1, R2 and a voltage of V volts. Current across the first resistor is given by(a) I R1(b) I R2(c) I R1 / R1 + R2(d) I R2 / R1 + R2I got this question in exam.Question is taken from The Voltage Divider and Current Divider Circuits topic in chapter Simple Resistive Circuits of Electric Circuits

Answer» RIGHT option is (d) I R2 / R1 + R2

The explanation: I1 = V / R1

R = R1. R2 / R1+ R2

= I .R1. R2 / R1 . R1 + R2

I1 = I R2 / R1 + R2.
