The reason your current didn't work out is because you used the wrong values in your formula. Your right in saying the current is the same in a series circuit, so that means if you want to find the Total current, you take the Total voltage of the circuit & divide by the Total resistance of the circuit. This will give you your 3.5 amps.If you place a meter any where in the circuit, you will get 3.5 amps.You can use the triangle method for watts(goes up top)also.Ur series has been very informative
