As discussed in @8173

Req = \frac{40\times 120}{40+120}\:\Omega

I = \frac{V}{R} =\frac{7}{5+\frac{40\times 120}{40+120}}

I = \frac{7}{5+30} \Rightarrow I = \frac{1}{5} = 0.2A


Option 1)

2.0 A

This answer is incorrect

Option 2)

1.0 A

This answer is incorrect

Option 3)

0.2 A

This answer is correct

Option 4)

0.1 A

This answer is incorrect
