🧠 Two Statements — Check Each Against a Basic Rule You Know

This is a Statement-I / Statement-II question. Do not overthink it. Read each statement and test it against one simple fact you already know. If a statement breaks the fact, it is false.

Statement I says the equivalent resistance of a series combination is smaller than the least resistance used. Recall the basic rule: in series, resistances add, so the total is larger than every single resistor — in fact larger than the biggest one.
