What is the current in each bulb?

[aznseal12]

Two 40-watt bulbs are connected in parallel to a 120-volt circuit. What is the current in each bulb?
Choose one answer.
a. 1/4 A
b. 1/3 A
c. 1/2 A
d. 2 A
e. 3 A

I used V = IR and P = V^2/R

My attempt
40 W = 120V^2 / R giving R = 360
1/R + 1/R = 1/Req => 1/360 + 1/360 = 1/Req => Req = 180ohms
V=IR => 120 = 180I => I = 2/3
which is not an answer

You found the total current (correctly), but the question asks for the current through each bulb.

You don't need to calculate resistance here, assume the total current is I , then I= \frac{80w}{120V}=\frac{2}{3} Amp, the current in each bulb should be \frac{1}{3} Amp
