Given: R1 = 1.50 W 

R2 = 2.50 W 

R3 = 4.80 W 

R4 = 3.30 W 

R5 = 8.10 W 

R6 = 6.30 W 

1/R345 = 1/R3 + 1/R4 + 1/R5 = 1/(4.80 W) + 1/(3.30 W) + 1/(8.10 W) = 0.634 W-1         R345 = 1.58 W

 

R3456 = R345 + R6 = 1.58 W + 6.30 W = 7.88 W       

 

1/R12456 = 1/R1 + 1/R2 + 1/R3456 = 1/(1.50 W) + 1/(2.50 W) + 1/(7.88 W) = 1.19 W-1         R123456 = 0.838 W
