SUMMARY
The discussion centers on the calculation of output voltage (V_o) in a resistive bridge circuit using the formula V_{o} = [(\frac{1}{1+R4/R3})-(\frac{1}{1+R2/R1})]V_s. The original calculation yielded 6V, which is incorrect given a supply voltage (V_s) of 3V. The correct output voltage should not exceed the supply voltage in a passive circuit, confirming that the calculated output of 1.5V is accurate.
