Answers:

The diagram of the arrangement is shown in Fig.

(i) The current in resistor A is I₁ = V/R₁ = 2/2 = 1.0A

The current in resistor B is I₂ = V/R₂ = 2/1 = 2.0 A

The current in resistor C is I₃ = V/R₃ = 2/4 = 0.5 A

(ii) The current through battery I = I₁ + I₂ + I₃

I = 1.0 +  2.0 + 0.5

= 3.5 Ampere.
