As being in Parallel, the Potential Difference will be same. Different will be the Current
So Current for 30 ohm resistor will be Ampere
And Current for 60 ohm resistor will be Ampere
The ratio of the Currents will be
Therefore, the Current for first resistor is double the current for second resistor
So Current for 30 ohm resistor will be Ampere
And Current for 60 ohm resistor will be Ampere
The ratio of the Currents will be
Therefore, the Current for first resistor is double the current for second resistor

The Potential Difference (p.d) will be same
But there will be a difference in the current flowing
Potential difference = V
Resistance = 30Ω
Current = V/30 Ampere
-------------------------------
Resistance = 60Ω
Current = V /60 Ampere
we know that Current is inversely proportional to the current flowing.
hence , when the resistance is more , current flowing is less .
when resistance is less , current flowing is more .
so ,
30 Ω < 60Ω
current passing through the resistor 60Ω will be less than current passing through the resistor 30Ω .
Current passing through resistor 30 ohm is double than current passing through 60 ohm resistor .
But there will be a difference in the current flowing
Potential difference = V
Resistance = 30Ω
Current = V/30 Ampere
-------------------------------
Resistance = 60Ω
Current = V /60 Ampere
we know that Current is inversely proportional to the current flowing.
hence , when the resistance is more , current flowing is less .
when resistance is less , current flowing is more .
so ,
30 Ω < 60Ω
current passing through the resistor 60Ω will be less than current passing through the resistor 30Ω .
Current passing through resistor 30 ohm is double than current passing through 60 ohm resistor .
