Frequently asked questions

How do you add resistances in series?

Add them directly: R = R₁ + R₂ + ...

How are they calculated in parallel?

1/R = 1/R₁ + 1/R₂ + ...

Is the equivalent resistance in parallel lower?

Yes. With positive resistances, it is lower than the smallest individual resistance.

Does it support decimals?

Yes.
