Answer:

0.2 amps

Explanation:

Given data

The formula V=IR is the formula for ohms law

Which state that the voltage is directly proportional to the current and the resistance in an electric circuit

Now

R= 15 ohms

V= 3volts

V= IR

3= I*15

I= 3/15

I= 0.2 amps

Hence he current flowing is 0.2 amps
