The blue highlighted values are the answers, but can sombody explain how my teacher got 120v for the 4k resistor and 60v for the 2k resistor? the only one I could figure out is the right side where I showed 1 calcuation....



circuit



I was running through practice problems that my teacher provided for us to prep for the coming exam... but I cant understand how he came to those voltage values.



Thank you in advance.

          If two resistors are in series then they have the same current. Also, the $30mA$ current source is in series with the $2kOmega$ and $4kOmega$ resistors. Therefore the $4kOmega$ resistor has $30mA$. By Ohm's Law $4kOmega * 30mA = 120V$. Likewise for the $2kOmega$ resistor: $2kOmega * 30mA = 60V$.
