assuming you mean that the three resistors are in parallel, then
1/R = 1/4 + 1/8 + 1/6
R = 24/13 Ω
current = E/R = 9 * 13/24 = 4.875 amps
A 9V battery is connected to a circuit wired in parallel. The resistors are 4 ohms, 8 ohms, and 6 ohms. What is the equivalent resistance? What is the total current?
