Brand Return Rate

SQL practice question · Medium · Joins · Myntra, Meesho

items_sold = number of order line items of the brand; items_returned = number of DISTINCT line items of the brand that appear in item_returns (the returns system sometimes logs the same item twice). Only brands with at least 3 items sold are reported. Return brand, items_sold, items_returned and return_rate_pct = 100 * items_returned / items_sold, ROUND to 1. Order by return_rate_pct DESC, then brand.
