Use Boolean algebra to arrive at the same result obtained by the K map method of Problem 4-18.


Problem 4-18

Example 4-3 demonstrated algebraic simplification. Step 3 resulted in the SOP equation 

z = ABC + ACD + ABCD + ABC.

Use a K map to prove that this equation can be simplified further than the answer shown in the example.


Data from Example 4-3

Simplify z = AC(ABD) + ABCD + ABC.

z = ABC + ACD + ABCD + ABC.
