Do you mean the additive effect of resistors in series vs the overall resistance in a parallel circuit being a value between the hi and low resistor values? I think I understand that however getting parallel resistance right when you're trying to get a resistance value for a resistor you don't have is a bit harder. I use the online calculators and an educated guess then go by some trial and error to get close enough. Is this what you mean Kevin?
