Total current
By Ohm's Law , V = I R
V = potential difference
I = current
R = resistance .
Given :
R = R1 + R2 [ since R1 and R2 are in series ]
==> R = 2 ohms + 3 ohms
==> R = 5 ohms
V = I R
==> I = V / R
Given :
V = 15 v
So : I = V / R
==> I = 15 v / 5 ohms
==> I = 3 A
Total current is 3 A

Total resistance
Total resistance is R
R = R1 + R2 [ as they are in series ]
==> R = 3 ohms + 2 ohms
==> R = 5 ohms
The total resistance is 5 ohms

Currents for R1 and R2
The current will be the same as they are in series . So they are flowing through the same wire .
Current for both R1 and R2 is the total current = 3 A
Current is 3 A for both

Potential difference for R1 and R2
For R1
V = I R1
==> 3 A × 3 ohms
==> 9 v
For R2
V = I R2
==> 3 A × 2 ohms
==> 6 v
Potential difference for R1 is 9 v and for R2 is 6 v
