View the Exhibit and examine the structure of the SALES and STORES tables.

You want to display the store name and the total quantity sold for each item in the store.

Which SQL statement will give the required output?

A) SELECT str.name, s1.items_id, SUM(s1.quantity)

FROM sales s1 JOIN stores str

ON (s1.store_id = str.store_id)

GROUP BY str.name, s1.items_id, s1.quantity;

B) SELECT str.name, s1.items_id, SUM(s1.quantity)

FROM sales s1 JOIN stores str

ON (s1.store_id = str.store_id)

GROUP BY str.name, s1.items_id;

C) SELECT str.name, s1.items_id,

(SELECT SUM(quantitY)

FROM sales sls

ON sls.store_id = s1.store_id

GROUP BY sls.store_id)

FROM sales s1 JOIN stores str

ON (s1.store_id = str.store_id);

D) SELECT str.name, s1.items_id, SUM(s1.quantity)

FROM sales s1 JOIN stores str ON (s1.store id = str.store_id)

GROUP BY s1.items_id, s1.quantity;

Answer：B

(解析：分组函数的最基本特点，没有出现在分组函数中的列必须要出现在 group by 子句中。)
