Three resistors connected in parallel have the individual voltages labeled DV1, DV2, and DV3, respectively. Which of the following expresses the total voltage DVT across the three resistors when connected in this manner?

a. DVT = (1/DV1 + 1/DV2 + 1/DV3)
c. DVT = (1/DV1 + 1/DV2 + 1/DV3)-1
b. DVT = DV1 + DV2 + DV3
d. DVT = DV1 = DV2 = DV3
