Homework Statement



The circuit at the right is a combination circuit. The resistance values are

R1 = 3.28
R2 = 3.28
R3 = 6.58

Determine the equivalent resistance (for the combination of three resistors), the voltmeter readings and the ammeter readings at the indicated locations.

R-eq =
V1 =
V3 =
I1 =
I2 =
I3 =



Homework Equations

The Attempt at a Solution



i need to find these.. i can't get the Equivilent resistance and that's messing me up on everything else. if someone could show me how to get this stuff itd be really appreciated!

heres the picture that goes with it!
