Example 5:
brown green gold gold

For these values, the third band is gold, indicating a fractional decimal
multiplier. When the third band is gold, multiply the first two digits by
0.1. (Refer back to table 1). The R value is
brown green gold gold

1 5 x 0.1 = 1.5Ω +5%

Example 6:

yellow violet gold silver

47 x 0.1 = 4.7Ω +10%

Example 7:
red red silver gold

For these values, the third band is silver. When the third band is silver,
multiply the first two digits by 0.01.( refer back to table 1). The R value is
red red silver gold

2 2 x 0.01 = 0.22Ω +5%

Example 8:
blue grey silver silver

68 x 0.01 = 0.68Ω +10%
