I already know the answer of question 1, 2 and 3.

1) 448 ohm

2) 1.6 V

3) 0.13 V

About the question 4, why 6V/300 = 0.02A = 20mA is wrong? Can I use current divider like 0.01339 * (3.3 * 10^3 / (300 + 3.3 * 10^3))? But, the answer still wrong.

    \$\begingroup\$ Break it up into smaller problems like you did for questions 1, 2 and 3. If you’ve gotten as far as answer #3 I’m sure you can apply the same techniques to manage the other two as well. \$\endgroup\$

    \$\begingroup\$ What is the voltage across the 300 ohm resistor? \$\endgroup\$

  • \$\begingroup\$ To further nudge you in the right direction, the 6V isn't dropped entirely over the 300Ω resistor; if it was, that's saying the resistor is connected between 6V and ground. So you can either (a) Find the drop across the 300Ω, so I = (6-Vx) / 300, or (b) Find the current over that entire resistor branch. That current is the very same that passes through 300Ω, so I = 6 / (the equivalent resistance of that branch) \$\endgroup\$

By superposition, the current thru R=300 splits into two paths that results in the sum for the answer in 4).

R1 = 300+100+100 = 500
R2 = 300+3k+1k+100 = 4k4
I(R=300)=6/500 +6/4k4
