Question 331646: I am using the fitch program and trying to solve this proof:
1. A V B
2. A V C

A V (B ^C )

I am having to use nested subproofs. I am to the very end and can't seem to figure it out!

1. A V B
2. A V C 
-----
A V (B ^C )


(A v B) ^ (A v C)       Conjunction of premises

A v (B ^ C)             Distributive law for v
