How to get a simplified circuit out of three smaller circuits

boolean-algebradigital-logiclogic-gates

I completed the three basic tasks in three independent circuits; however, the optional part is a bit confusing for me; how could I simplify them in one single circuit? Should I find inspiration in the truth tables or in the logical formulas of the 3 circuits?

I tried using boolean algebra manipulation to split them in a general circuit, but failed. How could I approach this? I need to implement it in a diagram, posteriorly build it on a breadboard and I can only use OR AND NOT gates.

Given your description exactly one output will be true at any time, so pick the two simplest circuits and combine their outputs to get the third output.

You want the third output true when the other two are false

Given that you solved the other individual outputs you should be able to take it from here.
