Tutorial on Basic Elements and Circuit Laws - Part 3
The formal solution for this problem looks like this:

Let's solve KVL around the red loop, the one consisting of the
25 W resistor, the 125 V battery, and
the 75 V battery:
-V25 - 125 + 75 = 0
V25 = 75 - 125 = -50
I = V/R = -50/25 = -2A
Here's a new problem.
Find the voltage V.
