What is the color code for a 220 
5% resistor?
5% resistor?Answer: Option
Explanation:
Resistor colour coding series:
Black 0
Brown 1
Red 2
Orange 3
Yellow 4
Green 5
Blue 6
Violet 7
Gray 8
White 9
None 20%
Silver 10%
Gold 5%
Therefore Red, Red, Brown, Gold
2 2 101 5%
= 22 x 10 = 220 ohm 5% (tolerance).

From which side, we should start to see the colors in RESISTORS for saying the color coding properly? can you say any identification to take any color as first color?

In resistor colour coding series
e.g:- 220 5%
1st&2nd are normally digit & 3rd is multiplier which is power of 10.
So for this case 220 %5
=22*(10)^1 5%
here 10 to power 1 so we use brown
if 10 to power o so we use black =22 ohm
