How we can find max terms for the same question?

Is it like A + BC = (A + B) (A + C).
Then the number of min terms are 2, right?

In this we are using De Morgan's law.
i.e A+BC = A(B+B')+BC(A+A').
= AB+AB'+ABC+A'BC.
= AB(C+C')+AB'(C+C')+ABC+A'BC.
= ABC+ABC'+AB'C+AB'C'+ABC+A'BC.
= ABC+ABC'+AB'C+A'BC(ABC+ABC=ABC).
= 1+1+1+1+1 = 5 min terms.
So, the total no. of min terms are 5.
i.e A+BC = A(B+B')+BC(A+A').
= AB+AB'+ABC+A'BC.
= AB(C+C')+AB'(C+C')+ABC+A'BC.
= ABC+ABC'+AB'C+AB'C'+ABC+A'BC.
= ABC+ABC'+AB'C+A'BC(ABC+ABC=ABC).
= 1+1+1+1+1 = 5 min terms.
So, the total no. of min terms are 5.
