----------------------------Multiply the left side: left = (x+y)(y+z)(x'+z) left = ((x+y)(y+z))(x'+z) left = (xy + xz + yy + yz)(x'+z) Simplify: left = (xy + xz + y + yz)(x'+z) left = (xy + xz + (y + yz))(x'+z) left = (xy + xz + y)(x'+z) left = (y + xy + xz)(x'+z) left = ((y + xy) + xz)(x'+z) left = (y + xz)(x'+z) Multiply: left = x'y + yz + xx'z + xzz left = x'y + yz + 0 + xz left = x'y + yz + xz
Step 2 = Reduce the right side
----------------------------Multiply out the right side: right = (x+y)(x'+z) right = xx' + x'y + xz + yz Simplify: right = 0 + x'y + xz + yz right = x'y + xz + yz Step 3 = compare left and right ------------------------------left = right x'y + yz + xz = x'y + xz + yz check.
