Answer:
Explanation:
Equivalent resistance of parallel combination of two resistors of 3 ohms and 4 ohms .
R₁ = 3 x 4 / ( 3 + 4 )
= 12 / 7 = 1.7 ohms .
This equivalent resistance is connected with 4 ohms in series
Total resistance = 1.7 ohms + 4 ohms
= 5.7 ohms.
Hence effective resistance of the circuit = 5.7 ohms .
