Let's say we have this logic function:
g = abc + abc' + a'bc
and let's try to simplify this using laws
= ab(c+c') + a'bc
= ab + a'bc
and there's the point I stuck.
But using the good ol' Karnaugh map it seems that the result should be ab + bc
So, does absorption law apply here?
Or I got it all wrong from the start?
If you duplicate the first term:
g = abc + abc' + abc + a'bc
and reduce
g = ab(c+c') + (a+a')bc
you get
g = ab + bc
