If we connect the resistors in series, then the equivalent resistance will be the sum of the resistors, i.e., 6 Ω + 6 Ω + 6 Ω = 18 Ω, which is not desired. If we connect the resistors in parallel, then the equivalent resistance will be
Hence, we should either connect the two resistors in series or parallel.
(i) Two resistors in parallel
Two 6 Ω resistors are connected in parallel. Their equivalent resistance will be
The third 6 Ω resistor is in series with 3 Ω. Hence, the equivalent resistance of the circuit is 6 Ω + 3 Ω = 9 Ω.
(ii) Two resistors in series
Two 6 Ω resistors are in series. Their equivalent resistance will be the sum 
The third 6 Ω resistor is in parallel with 12 Ω. Hence, equivalent resistance will be 
Therefore, the total resistance is
