The correct answer is:
Colour band and indicate the first two significant figures of resistance in "ohm" , while the band gives the decimal multiplier i.e., the number of zeros that follows the two significant figures and .
The last band indicates the tolerance in percentage about the indicate value or in another ward it represents the percentage accuracy of the indicated value.
According to given color-coding, the values of colors are
Green Black Red Silver tolerance
so, resistance is
The maximum current is
