Step-by-step explanation

In the above diagram, is short circuit. Therefore, we can remove it.

In the left part, and are in parallel combination, which will give us which again in turn is in series combination with the (adjacent to resistor), therefore net contribution of this part will be .

Now, all three are in parallel across point A & B, therefore
