Tutorial on Resistors in Series and Parallel - Part 4

The 10 W and 15 W resistors are in parallel because they are connected between the same two points (point B on one end, and the node connecting all 3 resistors on the other). This parallel combination gives 6 W, which is then in series with 4 W for a total of 10 W.

What is the resistance between A and B?
