Meaning

- orange-orange-brown-green would be 330 ohms with a ±0.5% tolerance.
- orange-orange-red would-grey would be 3300 ohms with ±0.005% tolerance.
- orange-orange-red-grey would be 3300 ohms with ±0.05% tolerance.

The difference between a four and five-band resistor is that the five-band resistor has an extra band to indicate a more precise value.

Meaning

- orange-orange-orange-black-green would be 330 ohms with a ±0.5% tolerance.
- orange-orange-orange-black-green would be 333 ohms with a ±0.5% tolerance.
- orange-red-orange-blue-violet would be 323M ohms with a ±0.10 tolerance.

There are also one band resistors.
This type of resistor only has the color black and has a value of 0.
One band resistors only have the color black with a value of 0.

This exercise is about translating the resistor band colors into a label:
