Question

Based upon the contents of the orders table, which of the following SQL statements will display only those orders shipped to the zip code zone that begins with 323?

a) SELECT * FROM orders WHERE zip_code LIKE '323%'

b) SELECT * FROM orders WHERE zip_code = '323'

c) SELECT * FROM orders WHERE zip_code = '323%'

d) SELECT * FROM orders WHERE zip_code LIKE '323'

Answer 1

The correct SQL statement to display only orders shipped to the zip code beginning with 323 is 'SELECT * FROM orders WHERE zip_code LIKE '323%'.

Step-by-step explanation:

The correct SQL statement to display only those orders shipped to the zip code zone that begins with 323 is option

a) SELECT * FROM orders WHERE zip_code LIKE '323%'

.

The SQL LIKE operator is used to search for a specified pattern in a column. In this case, the LIKE '323%' condition will match any zip code that starts with '323'.

Option b) SELECT * FROM orders WHERE zip_code = '323' will only return orders with the exact zip code '323', not those that begin with it. Option c) SELECT * FROM orders WHERE zip_code = '323%' will only return orders with the exact zip code '323%', which is not correct. Option d) SELECT * FROM orders WHERE zip_code LIKE '323' will only return orders with the exact zip code '323', which is also not correct.
