Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The total current is the sum of the currents through each branch. The current through the 10-ohm resistor is 0.02 A, the current through the 20-ohm resistor is 0.01 A, and the current through the 30-ohm resistor is 0.01 A. Therefore, the total current is 0.02 A + 0.01 A + 0.01 A = 0.03 A.
