Further reduction is possible. Note that the reduced terms produced in the first round can be combined with the reduced terms produced in the second round to produce even simpler expressions Ab combines with ab to produce A Ac combines with AC to produce A aB combines with AB to produce B Bc combines with BC to produce b aC combines with AC to produce C bC combines with bC to produce C Although tedious, this simple process of minimization produces the final, reduced Boolean equation F=A+B+ C
