Two resistors in series share one current. The voltage across each is its resistance over the total resistance, times the source. The larger resistor takes the larger share.

10 V feeds a 2 kilohm resistor on top and a 3 kilohm resistor on the bottom. Enter the voltage across the 3 kilohm resistor.
