    The document calculates the total resistance (Req) of two resistors in parallel (R1 and R2), then uses Req to calculate the total current (IT) drawn from a 12V source. It then calculates the voltage drop (VR1) across the first resistor, compares this value to the known value of R1, and determines there is a 0.4% error in the calculation.
