Answer:

The answer is B.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the current (Ampere) in a series circuit is same so we can ignore it. We can assume that the total voltage is 60V and all the 3 resistance are different, 20Ω, 40Ω and 60Ω. So first, we have to find the total resistance by adding :

Total resistance = 20Ω + 40Ω + 60Ω

= 120Ω

Next, we have to find out that 1Ω is equal to how many voltage by dividing :

120Ω = 60V

1Ω = 60V ÷ 120

1Ω = 0.5V

Lastly, we have to calculate the voltage at R1 so we have to multiply by 20 (R1) :

1Ω = 0.5V

20Ω = 0.5V × 20

20Ω = 10V
