resistors

[athenaroa]

If resistors of 5 ohm, 20 ohm, 40 ohm, and 50 ohms are parallel with each other, the equivalent resistance would most nearly be how many ohms?

[Integral]

Have you no expression for the resistance of parallel resistors?

Well, do you have options? Sounds like a multiple choice question. Nearly how many ohms?

try 1/Rx = 1/R1 + 1/R2 + 1/R3 +1/Retc... !
