Use the parallel calculator on this site. The equation for parallel wiring is 1/R total = 1/R1 + 1/R2 + 1/R3 etc ...

Build the box so that it performs well in the worst case scenario and, in return, it will reward you at all times.

When calculating two resistors in parallel, you can use the product over sum method.

(80x25)/(80+25)
