I dont remember circuits too well but i believe you minus the voltage drop from the first resistor. So V = 15 - 4 = 11V. Then you use this voltage for the second resistor and the current from part a.

Don't worry too much about circuits if you're stuck because it doesn't come back in detail in year 12. I personally sucked at this and was happy to not see it return.

Yeah what Vaibhav said :)

Voltage across the 5Ω resistor is 4V, hence the current i = 4/5A. Since the resistors are in series, you know the current through R is 4/5A. We can use KVL to determine that the voltage is 11V across R, hence re-arranging R = V/i, we get an expression for the unknown resistor R.
