TL;DR Summary: Thevenin Theorum

Hi Guys,

Trying to answer the following question with the attached figure

Q) To simplify the process, determine & draw the Thevenin equivalent circuit and then calculate the current through the R5 (5Ω) load resistor.
Circuit schematic with a 10V voltage source V1 on the left, R1 = 2Ω in the top branch, R2 = 4Ω in a vertical branch, R3 = 6Ω down the right side, and R4 = 3Ω and R5 = 5Ω side by side at the bottom right.


I have followed a similar example on this forum and got a final answer of 0.908A - can any else confirm this ?

Using an online calculator to get most of the way there and then just applying a final equation of Rth = VOC/ISC i get 0.45A

Any and all help would be great - Thank you all in advance

Can you show us your work that resulted in that answer?
