\frac{1}{R_{eq}}= \frac{1}{R_{1}}+\frac{1}{R_{2}}
\frac{\Delta R_{eq}}{R_{eq^{2}}}= \frac{\Delta R_{1}}{R_{1}^{2}}+\frac{\Delta R_{2}}{R_{2}^{2}}
R_{eq}= \frac{R_{1}R_{2}}{R_{1}+R_{2}}= 2
\frac{\Delta R_{eq}}{\left ( 2 \right )^{2}}= \frac{0\cdot 8}{16}+\frac{0\cdot 4}{16}
               = \left ( 0\cdot 2 \right )+\left ( 0\cdot 1 \right )
\Delta R_{eq}= 0\cdot 3
R_{eq}\pm \Delta R_{eq}= \left ( 2\pm 0\cdot 3 \right )\Omega
The correct option is (4)
