Several people have commented that current flows from negative to positive. Please understand that electron flow is from negative to positive, but current is just flow of charges, and it doesn't really matter if it flows from negative to positive or positive to negative. What matters is that current flows. Before it was discovered that electrons are negatively charged, people had to decide a convention for flow, and it was decided that everyone would consider it as flowing from positive to negative. Hence, even to this day, people still consider conventional current flow from positive to negative. Unless specifically stated that current shown is electron flow, assume conventional flow. This also prevents people from installing circuit components for which polarity matters (diodes, electrolytic capacitors, etc.) wrong, since all components are labeled using conventional flow polarity.
Thank you so much! I was having trouble finding individual voltages and currents. Your video is clear and consistent, plus you provide a great visual depiction
current does not travel from positive to negative. its Negative to positive because current flow is a charge of electrons moving in a conductor and they go from negative to positive

Good job! This might just help me pass my exam today! Thanks!!!
Excellent explanation - thank you!
Awesome. Thanks!
THANK YOU
This is amazing, i love you
how do i solve current and voltage drops for parallel and series circuits?
am i able to use voltage and current divider formulas on mixed circuits?
I don't get the 1 over 1 part. I get every else, except that !
