Thanks for your help by the way have 7 more questions like this, will be more manageable now

i solved them to get I1=3A, I2=-1.5A I3=4.5A

So far I have 24-4I3-2I1=0 27-4I3+6I2=0 and 24-27-6I2-2I1=0 cant seem to get any further my calculations keep saying things like -1.5+I2=-1.5+I2

I actually don't know where to begin... I tried to use V=E-Ir so did 24-2I1=4I3, 27-6I2=4I3 so 6I2-2I1=3? Can you start me off on the correct path, bit derailed.

Homework Statement Homework Equations Kirchhoff;s first and second law, V=IR The Attempt at a Solution Tried the question as follows: V= 24/(2+6+4) = 24/12 = 2V (pd from top cell) then did 2=4 I3 therefore I3 = 0.5A and then 2 = 6I2 I2 = 0.33A and I1 = 0.5+0.33... =0.83A?
