Correct answer: C

Explanation:

(A' + B')'

= (A')' (B')'

= AB

To implement this using only NOR gates:

1. Use a NOR gate as an inverter for A: connect both inputs to A → gives A'.

2. Use another NOR gate as an inverter for B: connect both inputs to B → gives B'.

3. Use a third NOR gate with inputs A' and B' → output is (A' + B')' = AB.

Total: 3 NOR gates.
