Question 594
Consider the schema R=(A, B, C, D, E, F) on which the following functional dependencies hold :
A➝B
B,C➝D
E➝C
D➝A
What are the candidate keys of R ?
A
AEF, BEF and DEF
B
AEF, BEF and BCF
C
AE and BE
D
AE, BE and DE
Question 594 Explanation: 
EFA​ +​ = {EFABCD}
EFB​ + = {EFABCD}
EFC​ + = {EFC}
EFD​ +​ = {EFDCAB}
So EFA, EFB, EFD are the keys for the given relation R=(A, B, C, D, E, F).
Correct Answer: A
