Suppose, let's assume an IC pin requires a 10kohm 1% tolerant resistor connected to ground for its proper operation.

In that case, can someone tell me whether I can split the required resistors into two or three? Like, can I use two number of 5kohm 1% tolerant resistor in series , so that the equivalent resistance is 10kohm connected to ground?

If not, can someone tell me what could go wrong with this approach?
