Find the resistance of the portion of the circuit between A and B in the circuit shown in fig

Points A and P are connected by a copper wire of negligible resistance. Similarly, Points B and Q are also connected by a copper wire of negligible resistance

a
3R
b
R /3
c
3R/2
d
2R/3

detailed solution
