Karnaugh map (K-map) is used to?

  1. minimize the number of flip flop in a digital circuit

  2. minimize the number of gates only in digital circuit

  3. minimize the number of gates and fan in of a digital circuit

  4. design gates

C Correct answer
Explanation

Karnaugh maps are a graphical method for simplifying Boolean expressions. They help minimize both the number of gates and the fan-in (inputs per gate) in digital circuits. Option A is incorrect because K-maps aren't specific to flip-flops. Option B is incomplete because K-maps optimize more than just gate count.
