Homework Statement



Calculate suitable resistances for R1 to R5 so that the binary values from the
counter produce voltages from 0 V to approximately 3.75 V in approximately 0.25 V
steps at point K in the circuit.I am attaching the document as well.There is total 9 questions which i need help

Homework Equations



Rtotal=1/R1 + 1/R2 +1/R3

The Attempt at a Solution


i have done t identify that the resistors are in parallel and in series but don't know how to start.
Rtotal=1/R1 + 1/R2 +1/R3
