Calculation: Rtotal and Parallel Resistors R1 or R2
 
Formula for resistors in series: Rtotal = R1 + R2 + R3 + ...
 
Rtotal Parallel Resistors Formula:
 Rtotal = R1×R2/(R1+R2)

 
 
Please enter two resistor values, the third value of the parallel circuit will be calculated.
You can even enter the total resistance
Rtotal and one known resistance R1 or R2.

Formula (equation) for the calculation of two resistances R1 and R2 connected in parallel:

Parallel01

Parallel02

Calculation of the necessary parallel resistor R2, when R1 and the total resistance Rtotal is given:

Formula resistor parallel

Solving the formula Rtotal= (R1× R2) / (R1 + R2) for R1:
The first step is to clear all fractions by multiplying by the lowest
common denominator, that is Rt × R1 × R2 ... so we get:

1/Rtotal = 1/R1 + 1/R2
Rtotal × R1 × R2[1/Rtotal = 1/R1 + 1/R2]
R1 × R2 = Rtotal × R2 + Rtotal × R1 then collect terms with R1 and solve
R1 × R2Rtotal × R1 = Rtotal × R2
R1(R2Rtotal) = R2 × Rtotal
Last step:
R1 = R2 × Rtotal / (R2Rtotal)
or:
R2 = R1 × Rtotal/ (R1Rtotal)

Notice: This calculator can also solve other math problems. Calculating resistors in parallel is
precisely the same as the calculations required for inductors in parallel or for capacitors in series.

Two resistors in parallel and the resulting total resistance: Two of the same value,
also show the equation that the results are always half. That makes it easier when
designing circuits or prototyping. With caps it's always double, then again caps just
simply add up in parallel.

● Calculate many resistors in parallel ●

This calculator determines the resistance of up to 10 resistors in parallel.
Enter resistances into the boxes below and when all values have been input,
click on the 'calculate' button and the result will appear in the box below that button.
As a test, if we enter resistances of 4, 6, and 12 ohms, the answer should be 2 ohms.
Notice: Manually clearing the boxes does not reset stored values. Use "reset".

Notice: This calculator can also solve other math problems. Calculating resistors in parallel is
precisely the same as the calculations required for inductors in parallel or for capacitors in series.

Power dissipated in resistor: P = V × I, P = V2 / R, P = I2 × R.
 
Notice: For resistors in series, the current is the same for each resistor,
and for resistors in parallel, the voltage is the same for each resistor.
