Expert Solution
Step 1

Truth table is a table which represents all the possible values of logical statements along with all the possible results of the given combinations of values.
a. F= (a¯+b.d¯).(c.b.a+c¯.d)
Here, the given boolean expression contain 4 variables, therefore the possible combinations are 24=16.
The resultant truth table is:

a b c d a¯ b.d¯ a¯+b.d¯ c.b.a c¯.d c.b.a+c¯.d F=(a¯+b.d¯).(c.b.a+c¯.d)
