Solution;

For multiple resistors in parallel;

1Re=1R1+1R2+1R3+...\frac{1}{R_e}=\frac{1}{R_1}+\frac{1}{R_2}+\frac{1}{R_3}+...

Substitute the give values;

1Re=11+12+13+14+15\frac{1}{R_e}=\frac11+\frac12+\frac13+\frac14+\frac15

1Re=13760\frac{1}{R_e}=\frac{137}{60}

Re=60137R_e=\frac{60}{137} ohms.
