Given R = 100 Ω and assuming a series circuit (as the figure is not visible), the total resistance in the circuit would be the sum of the two resistors, 100 Ω + 50 Ω = 150 Ω. Without the voltage value, we can't calculate the exact current. However, the correct answer format for current calculation in a resistor circuit would typically be in mA or A, depending on the voltage applied. Among the options, 21.47 mA is a plausible value for a circuit with a moderate voltage source, making D the best choice based on standard electrical principles.
