Consider the following relational schemes for a library database. Book ( Title, Author, Catalog_ no, Publisher, Year, Pr ice ) Collection ( Title, Author, Catalog no )
With in the following functional dependencies:
$${\rm I}.\,\,\,\,\,\,$$ Title Author $$ \to $$ Catalog_no
$${\rm II}.\,\,\,\,$$ Catalog_no $$ \to $$ Title Author Publisher Year

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.
