Answer 2

Answer:

It is parallel combination of the resistances where equivalent resistance is less than total resistance.

Explanation:

We can prove this with algebra or mathematical induction ( by inequality).

Here i am just taking a example of 10 similar resistance of value 5 ohm, if we connect the resistances in the parallel combination the equivalent resistance will be equal to 5/10 = 0.5. Hence the net resistance is less than the smallest resistance.
