Question
A $47-\mathrm{k} \Omega$ resistor and a $39-\mathrm{k} \Omega$ resistor are in parallel, and the pair is in series with a $22-\mathrm{k} \Omega$ resistor. What's the resistance of the combination?
Step 1
We have two resistors, \( R_1 = 47 \, \text{k}\Omega \) and \( R_2 = 39 \, \text{k}\Omega \), in parallel. This parallel combination is in series with another resistor, \( R_3 = 22 \, \text{k}\Omega \). Show more…
