please answer 3 and 4 thank you
**Boolean Function Minimization Using Karnaugh Maps (K-Maps)**

**Given Function:**
\[ F = ABC + ABD' + BC + C'D' + AC'D' \]

**Steps to Solve:**

1. **Convert to Standard SOP (Sum of Products) Form:**
   - Ensure that each term is a product of all variables.

2. **Construct the 4-Variable Karnaugh Map:**
   - Plot the given function on a K-Map with variables A, B, C, and D.

3. **Minimize the Function Using the K-Map Method:**
   - Group the 1s in the K-Map to find the simplest expression for F.

4. **Compute the Cost of the Minimized Function F:**
   - Determine the number of gates required for the simplified expression.

5. **Show at Least Two Variations of the Minimal K-Map Reduction:**
   - Demonstrate different ways to group 1s in the K-Map that lead to equivalent reduced expressions.

**Explanation of Diagrams:**
The K-Map is a visual tool to simplify Boolean expressions. It uses a grid format where each cell represents a minterm. By grouping adjacent cells with 1s, you can identify simpler expressions that represent the original function.
