Basic resistor question

Say I have the following simple circuit, with a new 9 volt battery and a 1k ohm resistor.

How can i figure out what the voltage is with the resistor?

Hi,

Since the resistor is connected directly to the battery, a voltage drop on the resistor equals to the battery voltage.

P.S. Feel free to come back next time with a question where RasPi is also involved. (You might ask first before taking experiments.)
