Answer analysis

Option-by-option breakdown

For each option: why learners choose it and why it is or isn't the right answer here.

  • LIMIT 10 OFFSET 20

    Why this is correct

    LIMIT 10 restricts results to 10 records, and OFFSET 20 skips the first 20 records.

  • LIMIT 20 OFFSET 10

    Why it's wrong here

    This would limit to 20 records and skip 10.

  • RANGE 20 TO 30

    Why it's wrong here

    RANGE is not a valid SOQL clause.

  • SKIP 20 TAKE 10

    Why it's wrong here

    SKIP and TAKE are not valid SOQL keywords.
