Voltage Divider Parallel Circuit

Question

I have to find voltage across R₆ but the problem is, i get a parallel circuit in the end, when I solve the circuit i get,

R₂₃₄₅=76.67Ω
R₁₆₇₈₉=96.059Ω

To apply voltage divider formula I have to get these resistors in series.
I want to know if its even possible to get the voltage across R₆ using the Voltage-Divider formula.

Answer 1

You are making the problem more complex than it really is. There is shown that 10V will be across the top of R1 to the bottom of R6. The voltage across R6 will be the same as the voltage across the the combination of R₆₇₈₉. So compute R₆₇₈₉ and then use that value in the voltage divider equation with R1.

There is no need to look at the values R₂₃₄₅ at all in this problem analysis. They were either put there to confuse you or to be another part of the problem if it was a multipart question referring to the same picture.
