Amps X Volts = Watts
Amps = Watts / Volts

When I was at school, we were taught 2 triangles to help figure out this and another formula.
For Watts, Volts and Amps you have a triangle /\ with Watts at the top point and Volts and Amps at the bottom corners separated by a multiply sign. This gave you 3 formulas W = V * A, V = W / A and A = W / V.
There was another similar triangle for Volts, Amps and Resistance (Ohms) that had Volts at the top and Amps and Resistance at the bottom which gave you V = A * R, A = V / R and R = V / A.
Hope this helps.

Power (Watts) = Amps * Volts

For a pure resistance: power = volts x amps (P = VI)
When a circuit has some reactance in it:
power = volts x amps x power factor (P = VI x power factor)
power factor = resistance / sq root(r^2 + X^2)

I agree with with Rod - Amps = volts x watts

Yes it is amps times volts I*V, it can be calculated using anps squared times resistance denosed as I*I*R or I squared R

power=volts*amps so amps=power\volts

the answer you've are centred on DC circuits. For sinusoidal AC circuits P=V*I*cos(theta) the position theta is the section attitude between the voltage and modern-day. For nonsinusoidal AC circuits that is P=(a million/T)*indispensable(v*i*dt) integrated over an integer type of finished cycles.

Power is the product of Voltage and current. so for calculating current (I), you have to divide power by voltage....
You will get amps..
I=P/V
