Solution

The current in the circuit can be calculated using Ohm's Law, which states that the current (I) is equal to the voltage (V) divided by the resistance (R). In this case, the voltage is 6.0 volts and the resistance is 24 ohms.

Step 1: Write down the known quantities Voltage (V) = 6.0 volts Resistance (R) = 24 ohms

Step 2: Use Ohm's Law to calculate the current I = V / R I = 6.0 volts / 24 ohms I = 0.25 A

So, the current in the circuit is 0.25 A. Therefore, the answer is A: 0.25 A.
