  • Circuit schematic for a dc problem: battery E between node 1 and ground, R1 2.7kΩ from node 1 to node 2, R2 3.3kΩ from node 2 to ground (0), R3 6.8kΩ from node 2 to node 3, R4 10kΩ from node 3 to ground, with a table of missing data.

  • Handwritten circuit analysis: a schematic with resistors 2.7kΩ, 6.8kΩ, 3.3kΩ and 10kΩ, node labels 1, 2, 3, source E, and V3 = 6V, followed by nodal equations for V1 and V2 with results V2 = 4086V and V1 = 9049V.

In your determination of V2 you haven't specified where the "0.6" comes from. If it's from figuring the current through R4 then make sure you've accounted for the units used.
