V = IR
The Attempt at a Solution
I don't even know how to begin. Am I supposed to use superposition? I rad about it online but don't know how to apply it.

A resistor is an electrical component that limits the flow of electric current in a circuit. It is used to control the amount of current and voltage in a circuit and protect other components from damage.
The resistance of a resistor is calculated using Ohm's law, which states that resistance (R) is equal to voltage (V) divided by current (I). In other words, R = V/I. You can also use a multimeter to measure the resistance of a resistor.
Multiple resistors can be used in a circuit to divide voltage, limit current, or create a specific resistance value. They can also be connected in series or parallel to achieve different effects.
Superposition is a principle that states that the total response of a linear system is the sum of the individual responses of each input. In terms of circuit solving, this means that we can break down a complex circuit into smaller parts and analyze them separately, then combine the individual responses to get the overall solution.
To calculate the voltage across a resistor using superposition, you need to calculate the voltage across the resistor for each individual input, then add them together to get the total voltage. This can be done by considering one input at a time and treating the other inputs as if they were turned off (replaced with a short circuit).
