It is.UPDATE: there was a schematic missing. Here is the schematic.
Vin= 16V
r1 =15 Kohms
r2=15 kohms
edit: is it 8 volts?

It sounds like you might still be guessing more than analyzing. If you are just blindly throwing some equation at it that is labeled "voltage divider equation" then stop. You should be able to derive that formula and if you can't, then you need to take the time to learn how because it is an indicator of very weak analysis skill that will come back to haunt you if you don't.UPDATE: there was a schematic missing.

What if "R r1"?No need to find Current
Simply, R2/R r1 * vin = vout
Typo , R2/R2+R1 * Vin = VoutWhat if "R r1"?
My point is that I'm not convinced that you understand the formula that you are using. Do you understand where that formula comes from? Can you derive it using fundamental circuit analysis techniques? Or are you just pulling it out of a list of formulas and saying, "Gee, this one looks like maybe it might give me the answer I'm probably looking for?"
You've demonstrated that fact here as well.I am really stressed at this point because I am failing this subject.
I don't know.. I just want to get it done so I can do my other homework.You've demonstrated that fact here as well.
In the self assessment of your studies, do you know why your failing? Remember, when you do that self-assessment, it's impossible to lie to yourself, as you already know the effort you placed on your studies.
Do you want to go back to the "other" question you guessed or should we just call it good and let you stress yourself out more?
Ok. We won't go back.I just want to get it done so I can do my other homework.
You are digging yourself an awfully deep hole. The first step in getting yourself out of it is to stop digging. But as long as you continue with this kind of attitude, all you are doing is digging more and more using bigger and bigger shovels. At some point, the sides of this massive hole are going to come tumbling in on top of you.I don't know.. I just want to get it done so I can do my other homework.
What is the voltage?, What is Fluke 77?You just need to know how the meter, as a load, affects the reading the meter shows.
If you were using a Simpson 260, it's a 20,000 ohms per volt meter. You would need to know the full scale you are using to figure out the input resistance of the meter. You don't have that problem with the DMMs which are typically 1 Megaohm or 10 Megaohm. I would not be surprised to find a 100 Megaohm input impedance out there.
Meters can load the circuit giving you false readings. If the technician isn't aware of that, they could be troubleshooting a circuit that has not failed.
Here is a question for the OP ...
Using the diagram below. What will the DMM read when the linear potentiometer is at 50%?
Voltage is 10V and fluke77 is voltmeter.What is the voltage?, What is Fluke 77?

If that is your "guess", then it is incorrect. You failed to consider the input impedance of the Fluke 77 and it's loading of the circuit.The DMM will read 5V, the current through the whole circuit is 10mA.
