When two resistors with resistances of A ohms and
B ohms are in a parallel-series circuit, the total
resistance, R, in ohms, is given by the equation above.
According to this equation, which of the following
resistances of the two resistors would yield the greatest
total resistance?
A) 1 ohm and 1 ohm
B) 1 ohm and 2 ohms
C) 1 ohm and 4 ohms
D) 2 ohms and 2 ohms
