A potential divider consisting of two resistors in series with a supply voltage circuit is illustrated below, three resistors are in parallel with a 24 V supply voltage. If the resistance values of R1, R2 and R3 are 15 Ω, 20 Ω and 10 Ω respectively, find the current flowing through each resistor (I1, I2 and I3), the total current flowing through the circuit (IT), and the total circuit resistance (RT).
