Right! A captures all variations of 'Jon'. It's the most effective.

I feel option C is too restrictive. What if the last name is longer?

Option B is tempting, but it’s too broad. We need specific owners.

Agreed! A makes sense. We need both conditions to be true.

I think option A is the best choice. It narrows down to the northern region and includes 'Jon'.

Wait, does "LIKE" really work for partial matches?

C is way too restrictive, it won't capture all the "Jon" owners.

C is definitely wrong, it’s too strict!

Wait, why would they use LIKE for just 'Jon'? Seems odd.

I think B could work too, but it’s not specific enough.

The correct query is A) Region = 'North' AND OwnerName LIKE 'Jon'.

I practiced a question similar to this, and I think it was about using AND for multiple criteria. So maybe A is the right choice?

I feel like the answer might be A, but I’m confused about whether LIKE can handle just 'Jon' or if it needs to be 'Jon%' for it to work properly.

I’m not entirely sure, but I remember something about using LIKE for partial matches. Does that mean we need to include wildcards?

I think the query needs to use AND because we want both conditions to be true, right?
