Hi guys.
Im trying to solve one problem from classes. I minimized given function using Karnaugh maps. Then I added group to prevent hazard phenomena (green group - 01010 and 01110).

So I've got function $$Z_{11}$$.
My question:
Are my further modifications correct? I'm not sure if by extracting before bracket few elements I didnt mess up hazard safety. Is that correct solution?
I would appreciate any help.
Cheers, Tom

EDIT:
Also I just noticed, that I didn't write down one of groups. But in case there would not be that group - is that correct?

What type of hazards are you afraid of? Race conditions or something else? Can you provide more background information about your current lesson?

Yup, its about static race conditions. Is that correct solution?

You don't have race conditions in combinational circuits. Just calculate the propagation time of the gates and check your result after the time has passed. It will always be correct.
