Using a resistor color code chart below, you will find that the resistance is calculated this way:

Resistance = (1st Digit x 10 + 2nd Digit) x Multiplier

Hold the resistor with the gold or silver band to the right and read the resistor from the left to the right.

So, in this case, the resistor is: RED RED YELLOW GOLD

Using the formula and resistor color chart found in the link below, the resistance would be:

R = 1st Digit x 10 + 2nd Digit) x Multiplier

R = (RED x 10 + RED) x YELLOW

R = (2 x 10 + 2) x 10,000

R = 22 x 10,000

R = 220,000 ohm (220 K ohms)

Since the final band is gold, the tolerance is 5%
