The color code for a 47 Ω resistor with 1% tolerance would be: 

Concept:

The color code of the carbon resistor is given as:

• Each color code is differentiated by different values (A, B), multiplier (C) and Tolerance (D%).
• A and B are the first two colors of the resistor which indicates the resistance in ohms (Ω)
• C is the third color which indicates the decimal multiplier.
• D is the fourth color which indicates the tolerance in % as per the indicated value.

The generalized formula for the resistance is:

R = AB × C ± D%

Application:

Given R = 47 Ω ± 1%

This can be written as:

R = 47 × \(10^0\) ± 1%

∴ A = 4, B = 7, C = \(10^0\) and D = 1%

The color coding from the table will be:

Yellow, Violet, Black, Brown
