Question

i only need the answer to the minimum SOP

For the following function, find all of the prime implicants using the Quine-McCluskey method.

\[ f(a, b, c, d) = \Sigma m(2, 4, 5, 6, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 15) \]

**Prime Implicant Chart and Minimum Sum-of-Products Solutions**

**Objective:**
Using a prime implicant chart, find all minimum sum-of-products solutions for the function given in problem 6.7(b).

**Instructions:**
- Construct a prime implicant chart to visualize the relationships between implicants.
- Identify essential prime implicants to ensure all terms in the function are covered.
- Derive the minimum sum-of-products expressions by selecting the most cost-effective combination of prime implicants.

**Diagram Explanation (if applicable):**
- The chart typically includes columns representing terms in the function and rows representing each prime implicant.
- Use checkmarks to denote which prime implicant covers specific terms.
- Highlight essential implicants that cover unique terms.
  
By following these steps, you can efficiently simplify boolean functions using the prime implicant chart method.
