Explanation / Answer

(A)

For A, all components are in series. So, the reliability is 0.98 x 0.92 x 0.996 x 0.994 = 0.8926 or 89.26%

(B)

For B, the reliability of R3 = 1 - (1 - 0.981)*(1 - 0.92) = 0.99848

relaibility of R4 = 1 - (1 - 0.96)*(1 - 0.96) = 0.9984

Reliability of the entire system = 0.98 x 0.92 x 0.99848 x 0.9984 = 0.89879 or 89.88%
