Correct answer: 100
- Maximum equivalent resistance
To get the maximum resistance using all 10 resistors of each, we connect them all in series.
- Minimum equivalent resistance
To get the minimum resistance using all 10 resistors, we connect them all in parallel.
For 10 identical resistors of resistance in parallel,
- Required ratio
Hence, the required ratio is:
