Expert Solution
Step 1

When circuit is hooked up for a long time then capacitor get fully charged and steady state will be reached.i.e., no current will flow through the arm containing capacitor therefore only consider the resistors.

Resistors R1 and R2 are connected in series hence current through both resistor will be same.
