The image below should be a K-map; if it is not visible, use the equivalent m-notation f(A, B, C, D) = Σ m(1, 2, 3, 5, 10, 11) to draw the K-map. In the K-map above, if you group optimally (with only one group of two 1s and one group of four 1s), so that your resulting Sum of Product (SoP) has the minimum number of gates. The resulting logic design should have [Status] due to your grouping. This can be resolved optimally by using [Solution] consensus term grouping.
