Boolean algebra finds its most practical use in the simplification of logic circuits. If we translate a logic circuit’s function into symbolic (Boolean) form‚ and apply certain algebraic rules to the resulting equation to reduce the number of terms and/or arithmetic operations‚ the simplified equation may be translated back into circuit form for a logic circuit performing the same function with fewer components. If equivalent function may be achieved with fewer components‚ the result will be increased
