this is probably the last one I will ask you for help with :)

@Directrix

OpenStudy (samigupta8):

do you know the nodal method?

OpenStudy (daniellelovee):

i might but by name idk sorry

OpenStudy (samigupta8):

it is simply putting the current at the meeting point to be 0

OpenStudy (daniellelovee):

oh ok

OpenStudy (samigupta8):

so now can you apply it here in this problem?

OpenStudy (daniellelovee):

I = V/ Req

OpenStudy (samigupta8):

once u know the value of x and y you will easily get the current flowing through the branch containing ammeter.No need for finding the current (total)

@Directrix

Directrix (directrix):

I thought this problem was solved.

OpenStudy (daniellelovee):

no I dont understand how to get to the answer I read where you tagged me but still didn't understand the steps

Directrix (directrix):

Isn't that problem @hartnn did the same type problem as this? Hartnn Problem: http://openstudy.com/study#/updates/537af556e4b0e2b3699fba3d

OpenStudy (daniellelovee):

but they didn't go accurately try to do it and you will understand

Directrix (directrix):

I don't see an x and y on the circuit as said by @samigupta8 . Nor, on @hartnn 's problem.

OpenStudy (daniellelovee):

see I told you it was difficult lol

Directrix (directrix):

There are some nodal method examples worked at the bottom of this site: http://mathonweb.com/help/backgd5.htm

OpenStudy (samigupta8):

See ,x and y are just the potentials i assumed at the points where we don't know the potential or you may say that if we name them as x,y we will be able to use them for the purpose of solving the equations.
