According to Demorgan's 1st theorem,

(A.B)'=A'+B'.
Here, the input of the OR gate becomes,
A',B' as it is passed through the bubble before applied to the gate . Thus the output becomes
A'+B' which gives (A+B)' by De morgan's theorem which is the output of NAND gate.

Question is saying "bubbles" on its inputs.

So inputs to the OR gate is now A' and B' and the on the addition of A'+B' will get the output as NAND gate i.e.

A B A' B' A'+B'
0 0 1 1 1
0 1 1 0 1
1 0 0 1 1
1 1 0 0 0

The answer should be Option (A) NOR.

why is it a NOR gate. Shouldn't a nor gate be (A+B)(bar) while the and gate has A(bar) + B(bar)?
