The following SQL query is executed on the above tables:
Select hostel
From student natural join hobby
Where marks > = 75 and roll between 2000 and 3000;
Relations S and H with the same schema as those of these two tables respectively contain the same information as tuples. A new relation S’ is obtained by the following relational algebra operation:
$$\eqalign{ & S' = \prod\nolimits_{hostel} {(({\sigma _{S.roll = H.roll}}} \cr & ({\sigma _{marks > 75\,\,\,and\,\,roll > 2000\,\,and\,\,roll < 3000}}(S))X(H)) \cr} $$The difference between the number of rows output by the SQL statement and the number of tuples in S’ is
