The table below shows
details on orders that were made by The Northwind, and international

the definition for the foods listed under the field
"Product."
The table has five fields:
Order ID, Product, Unit Price, Quantity (ordered), and discount.
Calculate
your answers on a separate piece of paper. Fill the box with the
answer. Check your answer.
