The digit 8 in colour code of a resistance is represented by
The tolerance of a resistance is given as 0.1%. which colour represents this tolerance
Colour coding of Resistance
The carbon resistance has normally four coloured rings bands $A, B, C$ and $D$.

Colour bands A and B Indicates the decimal figure.
Colour band C Indicates the decimal multiplier.
Colour band D Indicates the tolerance in per cent about the indicated value. Tolerance represents the percentage accuracy of the indicated value.

Tolerance of Gold is $\pm 5 \%$
Tolerance of Silver is $\pm 10 \%$
Tolerance if no colour $\pm 20 \%$
