Answer:

3V

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question given above, we can see clearly that the resistors are arranged in parallel connection. Hence, the same voltage will pass through the resistors i.e

Total voltage = voltage of 3 Ω = voltage of 6 Ω

From the question given above,

The total voltage = 3 V

Therefore,

Voltage of 3 Ω = total voltage

Voltage of 3 Ω = 3V

Thus, option 3 gives the correct answer to the question.
