Need help with simplifying boolean equation

[adamBatakji]

Hi guys I need some strategies in simplifying this boolean equation please.

~=not
My problem is: ~A~C + ~ABC + ~BC

My first idea was to factor out ~A from the first two terms so I get : ~A(~C + BC) + ~BC)

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

Are you familiar with Karnaugh maps? They can help you simplify these sorts of expressions very quickly.

Well I am a little familiar with it but not enough. My professor wants us to use the boolean laws to simplify these. Thats what I need help using. I've been stumped on this one for too long
