21.1 Exercise 21

Avg difficulty 2.5

Note: Data taken from figures can be assumed to be accurate to three significant digits.

What are the largest and smallest resistances you can obtain by connecting a 36.0-Ω\text{36} . 0-Ω, a 50.0-Ω\text{50} . 0-Ω, and a 700-Ω\text{700}-\Omega resistor together?
