Series
R = R1 + R2 + R3...
R = 5 × 10
R = 50 ohm
Parallel
R = 1R1 / 1R2 / 1R3...
R = 1/10 × 5
R = 0.5 ohm

Answer:
Resistor is equipment that resists the normal flow of electric current through the line. When there are multiple resistors in an electrical circuit, then equivalent resistance is the total effective resistance power that can replace all these individual resistors.
If it is a series circuit, then the equivalent resistance will be 10 x 5 = 50 ohm, as all resistances are added up here.
If it is a parallel circuit, then the equivalent resistance will be 1/10 x 5 = 0.5 ohm, as reciprocal of all resistances are added up.
