Without getting into the math, we take a simple route to establish a more intuitive feeling of how resistors in parallel and resistors in series act. To increase overall resistance, you put resistors in series, to decrease overall resistance, you can put them in parallel. But there's more to it than that! Give it a watch to familiarize yourself better with these concepts.
