The inputs to a digital circuit are signals $A, B$ and $C$. $\overline{A}$, $\overline{B}$ and $\overline{C}$ are not available. The $+5\text{V}$ supply and the ground can be used as logic '1' and '0' inputs respectively. To implement a function $\overline{B}\overline{C} + A\overline{C}$ using only 2:1 multiplexer, minimum number of MUX required is:
