connected in series and then in parallel. Calculate the ratio of series and
parallel combination of the resistors

Wire is cut into n equal parts. Since all dimensions are same for pieces, Resistance of each wire is equal and has a value = R/n.
Resistance is proportional to length of wire and inversely proportional to area of cross-section.
IF length is 1/nth, then Resistance is also 1/n th of original value.When these five are connected in parallel combination, then net resistance becomes 1/nth again. So R1 = R/n * 1/n = R/n^2
