The equivalent resistance of a group of resistances is $R$. If another resistance is connected in parallel to the group , its new equivalent becomes $R_1$ and if it is connected in series to the group , its new equivalent becomes $R_2$ we have :
  • A$R_1 > R$
  • B$R_1 < R$
  • C$R_2 > R$
  • DBoth $(B)$ and $(C)$
