AS- Voltage & current question
I got a really complicated circuit from my teacher the other day (Attached Below)
and we had to work out all the reading on the ammeters and voltmeters around the circuit. So i've worked out total resistance : 7.5 Ohms, so total current is 1.6Amps.
Now where im having trouble with is at the first junction, how does current and voltage split, and then at the next juntion how does it split ?
Any help greatly appreciated

My general advice for a question like this is to redraw the circuit, combining as many resistors as possible and drawing the junctions so that you can understand what is going on.
Yes - its not as complicated as it first appears. Combine resistors in series then in parallel.
