Commutative Law for Demorgan’s Theorems

Addition First Theorem


A+B=B+A (A.B)’  A’  B’
Commutative Law for Second Theorem
(A  B)’  A’.B’
Multiplication
A.B = B.A
Associative Law for
Addition
A + (B + C) = (A + B) + C
Associative Law for
Multiplication
A.(B.C) = (A.B).C
Distributive Law
A.(B + C) = A.B + A.C
Rules of Boolean Algebra
1. A + 0 = A
2. A + 1 = 1
3. A.0 = 0
4. A.1 = A
5. A + A = A
6. A + A’= 1
7. A.A = A
8. A.A’ = 0
9. A’’= A
10. A + A.B = A
11. A +A’.B = A + B
12. (A+B).(A+C)= A+B.C
= (A’ +B’)( A’+B)
= A’ A’+A’B+B’ A’+B’B
= A’+A’B+B’ A’+0
Simplification using Boolean = A’+A’(B+B’ )
Algebra = A’ +A’
AB + A(B+C) + B(B+C) = A’
= AB + AB + AC + BB +BC Simplify A’( A+B)+(B + AA)(A
= AB + AC + B + BC + B’ )
= AB + AC + B • A’( A+B)+(B + AA)(A + B’ )
= B + AC = A’A + A’B +(B+ A) (A+B’)
1. (A+ B)’.(A+ B’)’.(A’+ C) = A’B + BA + BB’ +AA+AB’
SOL: = A’B + BA+ A+AB’
= A’. B’ . A’ . B .( A’+C) =B(A’+A) +A(1+B’)
= A’. A’ .B . B’. ( A’ + C) = B+A
B . B’=0
=0
2. AB’ + A(B + C)’ + B(B + C)’
SOL:
= AB’ + AB’C’ + B . B’ .C’
=AB’(1 + C’) + B . B’ . C
=AB’ (1) + 0.C
=AB’ .
Simplify C+ (BC)’
• C+(BC)’
= C+( B’ + C’ )
= ( C+ C’ )+ B’
= 1+B’
=1
Simplify (AB)’( A’+B)(B’ + B)
• (AB)’( A’+B)(B’ + B)
= (AB)’( A’+B)(1)
