Multiple choice

Relation R with an associated set of functional dependencies, F is decomposed into BCNF. The redundancy (arising out of functional dependencies) in the resulting set of relations is

  1. zero

  2. more than zero but less than that of an equivalent 3NF decomposition

  3. proportional to the size of F+

  4. indetermine

A Correct answer
Explanation

BCNF (Boyce Cold Normal Form) since R is decomposed in BCNF then no redundancy in the resulting set may occur and all transitive dependencies are removed.
