Answer:

Current (or I) = E (voltage) / R (resistancr)

I = 12 / 8

I = 3 / 2 amp = 1.5 amps

Answer:

Current = 1.5A

Step-by-step explanation:

Voltage = Current × Resistance

→ Rearrange to make current the subject

Current = Voltage ÷ Resistance

→ Substitute in the values

Current = 12 ÷ 8

→ Simplify

Current = 1.5A
