# Electronics: Resistors in parallel

From relation for calculating the resistance of parallel combination of resistors:

$\dfrac{1}{R} = \dfrac{1}{R$1} + \dfrac{1}{R2}

Calculate the R, if R1 = 2Ω a R2 = 15Ω

Result

R =  1.76 Ω

#### Solution:

R = \dfrac{1}{ \dfrac{1}{ 2}+\dfrac{1}{ 15}} = 1.76 \ &\text{Omega};
