How do I convert SOP to Logic Gates?

[pokeastuff]

Hi,

My Dad and I are working on this together, using Karnaugh Maps we created a SOP for the MUX gate. We don't know what to do next with it.....

Any help would be appreciated.

Sum of Products (SOP) in logic means Or-ing together two or more And terms.
Your K-map reduction for Mux should have come out (a & ~sel) | (b & sel).
The product terms are
    a & ~sel, and
    b & sel
so you need two and gates, one for each term.  Or their outputs together.

Thanks Mark, I'm not completely sure what you mean but we managed to figure it out.

Appreciate the quick response.
