    We need to formulate an equation using Kirchhoff's Law and the 2 equations formed are listed below:

    -4i1+10i2=14 and 7i1-8i2=4

    Since we have two equations and two unknowns, we can now solve for current 1 (i1) and current 2 (i2). Then we have i1=2 amperes and i2=3 amperes.

    Therefore, the current in R2 is 1 ampere.
