Physics AS Electricity HELP

I have attached two questions on Kirchhoff's law that I do not understand at all
Any help would be appreciated
(Its Qs 3-4)
(edited 5 years ago)
Q3:
1A flows through the bottom left hand arm, so what would flow through its top arm?
1A + that current splits, half going through highlighted resistor.
Q4:
Knowing A5 is 3A and its branch has 2 ten ohm resitors -> calculate pd from battery.
Use that to find currents in other branches.

Hope that helps.
For question 3 would the current at the top arm be 3A because there is only 1 resistor compared to 3?
For question 4 is the voltage 60V because it leads me to the answers
Thank you so much!
