Thank you @Sharon.

Is it like A + BC = (A + B) (A + C).

Then the number of min terms are 2, right?

Seetha kumari said:   9 years ago
How to find the minterm?

A + BC = A (B + B') (C + C') + BC (A + A').
= A (BC + BC '+ B'C + B'C') + BCA + BCA',
= ABC + ABC'+ AB'C + AB'C' + BCA + BCA',
= 2ABC + ABC' + AB'C + AB'C' + A'BC.

A B C BC A+BC
1 1 1 1 1
1 1 0 0 1
1 0 1 0 1
1 0 0 0 1
0 1 1 1 1
0 1 0 0 0
0 0 1 0 0
0 0 0 0 0

Write the expressions for true values i.e. for 1 values.

First five are true values.

ABC + ABC' + AB'C + AB'C' + A'BC.

How we can find max terms for the same question?

Deepshikha said:   8 years ago
Yes, @Padmaja.

If we want to find max terms of the same function then in the above expression, we just have to write the expression for the false values (0). So we get three expressions that is A'B'C'+A'B'C+A'BC'.
