Voltage Divider Circuit Design

Design a voltage divider circuit with a 12V DC voltage source and three resistors connected in series: R1 = 1k ohm, R2 = 2k ohm, and R3 = 3k ohm. Connect a digital multimeter as a voltmeter across resistor R3, and include a ground component connected to the negative terminal of the DC source.
I’ll add the 12 V source, three series resistors, a voltmeter across R3, and ground the source negative, then verify the schematic connections.
I found the requested divider already present as the C1 block, so I’m tightening it up rather than duplicating it: I’ll make the source explicitly 12 V DC and verify the R3 meter wiring.
Done. I configured the C1 voltage divider block with a 12 V DC source, R1 = 1 kΩ, R2 = 2 kΩ, R3 = 3 kΩ, and the voltmeter connected across R3.
I also connected the source negative terminal and R3 bottom node to ground, removed duplicate floating ground symbols, and verified there are no C1-related ERC warnings. Expected R3 voltage is 6 V because R3 is half of the total 6 kΩ divider resistance.
