To get maximum resistance, the resistance should be connected in series.

As the circuit's current flows sequentially through each resistor in a series connection, the total resistance equals the sum of the individual resistances.

The total resistance in a series combination can be calculated as:

Req=R1+R2+R3+......

The total resistance when five resistors are linked in series will be given by:

Req= 16+ 16+16+16+16+16= 56Ω.

Therefore, five 16Ω resistors can produce maximum resistance of  56Ω With a series connection.
