The sum of the currents through all the branches in the parallel circuit is 0.3 A.What is a parallel circuit?A parallel circuit is a type of circuit which comprises branches so that the current divides and only part of it flows through any branch. The voltage, or potential difference, across each branch of a parallel circuit is the same, but the currents may vary.The sum of the current flowing in any branch of a parallel circuit is determined by applying Ohms law as follows;I = V/R₁ + V/R₂ + V/R₃where;V is the voltage across the circuitR₁ is the resistance of the first component of the circuitR₂ is the resistance of the second component of the circuitR₃ is the resistance of the third component of the circuitThus, If the current leaving the cell in a parallel circuit is 0.3 A, then it implies that the resultant current or total current in the parallel circuit is 0.3 A.Learn more about parallel circuit here: https://brainly.com/question/19509255#SPJ1
