F(A, B, C) = (A + BC) (AB + C)
First off, distribute it like you would a mathematical binomial.
(A + BC) (AB + C) = AAB + AC + BCAB + BC
Note that boolean algebra states two duplicate terms can merge into one. This then becomes
= AB + AC + ABC + BC
Swapping terms around,
= AB + ABC + AC + BC
And then factoring the first two terms
= AB (1 + C) + AC + BC
1 + C is equivalent to (true or C), and, in a disjunction, (true or C) is just "true"
= AB(1) + AC + BC
= AB + AC + BC
That should be in its reduced form.

i got here across an extra straightforward thank you to try this. (A+B)(A+B')(A'+C) = (A+BB')(A'+C), from distributive sources of "or" over "and" = (A+fake)(A'+C) = A(A'+C) = AA' + AC, from distributive sources of "and" over "or" = fake + AC = AC Lord bless you at the instant!

F(A,B,C)=(A+B.C').(A.B+C')
distribute the products:
=A(AB) + A(C') + BC'(AB) + BC'(C')
=AAB + AC' +ABBC' +BC'C'
use AA = A
=AB + AC' + ABC' + BC'
fill in (example AB = ABC + ABC')
=ABC + ABC' +ABC' + AB'C' + ABC' +ABC' + A'BC'
(ABC' + ABC' = ABC')
=ABC + ABC' +AB'C' +A'BC'
which is 4 out of 8 possibilities.
