Three resistors are connected in series across a 60 V source. If V_R1=19 V and V_R2=14.3 V , then what is the voltage drop across R₃ ? A) 14.3 V B) 45.7 V C) 19 V D) 26.7V

If we add the voltage drops across R1 and R2, we get 19 V + 14.3 V = 33.3 V. This means that the remaining voltage drop across R3 is 60 V - 33.3 V = 26.7 V. Therefore, the voltage drop across R3 is 26.7 V.
