Boolean Algebra Simplification (Exam Prep)


I am preparing for an exam that I have on monday and the professor said that this would be on the exam for sure. I know the basic theorems of boolean algebra but I cannot quite simplify these 3. If someone could please explain how this would be done without using a truth table or k-map.

boolean


Solution

  • refer your notes. check out the identities you can apply to simplify these expressions. eg

    1. Y=C(A+A'B')=>C(A+B') using(A+A'B)=A+B

    2. Use De Morgan's law

    3. if you solve first 2 you can do this one.

    Here you can refer the basic rules.
