In parallel, the total
resistance is always less
than the smallest resistor.

Series resistors connect in a line.
More resistors more resistance.
Parallel resistors connect together at each end.
More resistors less resistance.

There is only one path for current to flow through
a series circuit.
230volts
Current must be the same throughout the circuit.
Using Ohms law calculate current.

230volts
If we know the resistance and the current through each resistor we can calculate voltage.
Calculate V1, V2 and V3 then add together
