MINIMUM AND MAXIMUM VALUE COMPARISON WHAT DO YOU DO IF THE LAST COLOR IS GOLD?
1. Get the 5% of the actual value of the resistor. 2. Add the computed 5% of the actual value to get the maximum, 3. Subtract the computed 5% of the actual value to get the minimum.
46
MINIMUM AND MAXIMUM VALUE COMPARISON WHAT DO YOU DO IF THE LAST COLOR IS SILVER?
1. Get the 10% of the actual value of the resistor. 2. Add the computed 10% of the actual value to get the maximum, 3. Subtract the computed 10% of the actual value to get the minimum.
