Answer

(c) B,C,A

Work Step by Step

$ \frac{1}{R_{eqA}} = \frac{1}{R} + \frac{1}{R}+ \frac{1}{2R} $ $ R_{eqA} = \frac{2R}{5}$ $ \frac{1}{R_{eqB}} = \frac{1}{2R} +\frac{1}{2R} $ $ R_{eqB} = R$ $ \frac{1}{R_{eqC}} =\frac{1}{R}+\frac{1}{3R}$ $R_{eqC} = \frac{3R}{4}$ Since $ R \gt \frac{3R}{4} \gt \frac{2R}{5} $ Therefore $ R_{eqB} \gt R_{eqC} \gt R_{eqA}$
