3-R1

Expert Answer:
I = V/R (Ohms law)
Since, in a parallel connection, V remains the same across 2 resistors
Hence, I1/ I2 = R2/R1
a. So, if R1>R2
Then, I2>I1
b. If R1 = R2
then, I1 = I2
Your third part is not written clearly. But, whatever be the condition between R1 and R2, you can use the above logic to compare the current through R1 and R2.
