Compute completely and write legibly. 

1. Three equal parallel resistors A, B, and C are connected in series with three equal series resistors
D, E, and F. If resistor D is 3 times the value of resistance A and the total resistance of the circuit is
112/3 ohms, what is the resistance of resistor E?
NOTE:
Answer should be in the form of 18 OHMS
