Consider The Following Relational Scheme

Student (school-id, sch-roll-no, sname, saddress)
School (school-id, sch-name, sch-address, sch-phone)
Enrolment (school-id, sch-roll-no, erollno, examname)
ExamResult (Erollno, examname, marks)

Consider the following tuple relational calculus query

{ t | ∃E ∈ Enrolment t = E.school-id ∧ 
| { x | x ∈ ExamResult B.school-id = 
t ∧ ( ∃B ∈ ExamResult B.erollno = 
x.erollno ∧ B.examname = x.examname ∧ 
B.marks > 35 } | ÷ | 
{ x | x ∈ Enrolment ∧ x.school-id = t } 
| * 100 > 35 }
If a student needs to score more than 35 marks to pass an exam what does the query return?
A
The empty set
B
Schools with more than 35% of it's student enrolled in some exam or the other
C
Schools with a pass percentage above 35% over all exams taken together
D
Schools with a pass percentage above 35% over each exam.

School (school-id, sch-name, sch-address, sch-phone)
Enrolment (school-id, sch-roll-no, erollno, examname)
ExamResult (Erollno, examname, marks)

What does the following SQL query output?
SELECT sch-name, COUNT (*)

ExamResult R 
WHERE E.school-id = C.school-id 
AND E.examname = R.examname 
AND E.erollno = R.erollno
AND R.marks = 100 AND S.school-id IN 
(SELECT school-id 
 FROM student 
 GROUP BY school-id 
 HAVING COUNT (*) > 200) 
GROUP BY school-id;
A
for each school with more than 200 students appearing in exams, the name of the school and the number of 100s scored by its students
B
for each school with more than 200 students in it, the name of the school and the number of 100s scored by its students
C
for each school with more than 200 students in it, the name of the school and the number of its students scoring 100 in at least one exam
D
nothing; the query has a syntax error
