Expert Solution
Step 1

!w is w¯

!x is x¯

!y is y¯

!z is z¯

So Question is-

F(w,x,y,z)=wxyz¯ +wxyz¯ + wxyz¯ +wx¯yz¯ + wxyz¯ + wx¯yz¯

               = wxyz¯wxyz¯ + wxyz¯wxyz¯wx¯yz¯ + wx¯yz¯

              =(w¯ + w) xyz¯ + wxz¯(y¯ + y) + x¯yz¯(w¯ + w)

               As Per Complement law A + A¯ = 1

             = xyz¯wxz¯x¯yz¯

             = xyz¯x¯yz¯ + wxz¯

             = xz¯(y¯ + y) +wxz¯

            Now Apply Complement law

            = xz¯ + wxz¯

          = z¯(x¯ + wx)
