Maximum resistance occurs

When all the resisters are connected in series combination

$\therefore R _{\max }=10\,R$

Here $R =10\,ohm$

Minimum resistance occurs

When all the resistance are connected in parallel combination

$R _{\min }=\frac{ R }{10}$

$\therefore \frac{ R _{\max }}{ R _{\min }}=100$
