1. (a) Choose the proper answer A, B, C, or D of the following: [2.5 marks]


i. 5110 is equal to
A. 1100112 B. 3316 C. 00110001BCD D. answer A. and B.
ii. The largest binary that can be represented with 8 bits is
A. 128 B. 255 C. 256 D. 127
iii. The output of an AND gate is 1 if
A. at least one of its inputs is 1
B. all its inputs are 0s
C. none of its inputs is 0
D. at least one of its inputs is 0
iv. The hexadecimal number 7616 is
A. greater than 778 B. equal to 1111102 C. less than 3E16 D. answer A. and B.
v. The expression x0 + y is equivalent to
A. xy 0 B. x + y 0 C. x0 y D. x + y 0

(b) Put true or false × next to each of the following sentences and correct the
false sentences: [2.5 marks]
i. x + 1 = x h×i, x + 1 = 1
0

ii. x · x = 0 h i
iii. Boolean algebra expressions is always equivalent to their respective linear algebra
ones h×i, isn’t
iv. The operator precedence for evaluating Boolean expressions is: 1) parentheses, 2)
NOT, 3) OR, and 4) AND h×i, 1) parentheses, 2) NOT, 3) AND, and 4) OR

v. x + x · y = x h i

2. (a) Find the complement of the F = x (y 0 z + yz 0 ) by talking its dual and complementing
each literal. [2 marks]
0 0 0 0 0 0
Solution: dual = x + (y + z)(y + z ) → F = x + (y + z )(y + z).
(b) Demonstrate using a truth table the validity of x + yz = (x + y) (x + z). [3 marks]
Solution: Clearly, it is seen from the following truth table that the LHS of the above
equation is equivalent to its RHS.
x y z yz LHS: x + yz (x + y) (x + z) RHS: (x + y) (x + z)
0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0
0 0 1 0 0 0 1 0
0 1 0 0 0 1 0 0
0 1 1 1 1 1 1 1
1 0 0 0 1 1 1 1
1 0 1 0 1 1 1 1
1 1 0 0 1 1 1 1
1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1

3. By using Karnaugh map, simplify the following Boolean expression: [5 marks]

w0 z + xz + x0 y + wx0 z
Solution:
w0 z = m1 + m3 + m5 + m7 ,
xz = m5 + m7 + m13 + m15 ,
x0 y = m2 + m3 + m10 + m11 ,
wx0 z = m9 + m11 .
P
∴ F (w, x, y, z) = (m1 , m2 , m3 , m5 , m7 , m9 , m10 , m11 , m13 , m15 )
Therefore F (w, x, y, z) can be represented in the K-map as shown below

clearly, it is shown that the given Boolean expression is equivalent to z + x0 y.


with my best wishes...
