Multiple Choice

In evaluating all conditions in a query, which logical function is most appropriate?

All conditions must be satisfied for a row to qualify, and the operator that enforces that requirement is the AND conjunction. AND returns true only when every part being tested is true, so combining multiple conditions with AND narrows results to rows that meet all criteria. If you used OR, any single true condition would be enough, which broadens the results and doesn’t ensure all conditions are met. NOT negates a condition, which isn’t about ensuring all conditions hold. IF is a conditional expression, not the operator used to require every condition to be true in a query.
