Selected Answer: AB
AB is the correct answer. Grouping in power query reduces the number of rows in the impression table that is gonna be loaded in the model. Creating relationships doesn't increase the size of the model. Therefore, the answer AB is correct!

Neither option a or d reduce model size but option a at least allows for proper data structure for accurate analysis -> option A the better of the two option C increases model size so hard no option b reduces model size , yay therefore answer is A and B

Selected Answer: AB
Creating one-to-many relationships = optimizing the model. => A is correct. Group the Impressions query in Power Query = pre-summarizing the data which results in a smaller and more efficient data model => B is correct.

I feel like A and D should be the right answers given the fact that option B does not group by Campaign which is wrong. Any thoughts on this?

...i also believe that D does not reduce the model size as stated in the requirements. you are keeping the same number of Impressions rows and just adding a DAX measure.

A and B are correct, i believe. B is grouping the Impressions table, it does not have Campaign ID column. That column is in the Ads table, which remains unmodified in solution B.

Guys, I feel like B and C are wrong. They didn't do anything with the campaign but we need to analyze the campaigns. Since D also work, I believe the answer should be A & D

B and C are the correct answers. B. This step will help us aggregate the impression data at the desired level of granularity (day, campaign, and site_name) in Power Query itself, reducing the amount of data loaded into the data model. C. By creating a calculated table that contains only the necessary columns (Ad_id, Site_name,and impression_date), we further minimize the data model size.

I would say AD is correct. Let us ignore the day and site_name and focus on the Ad vs Campaign. The reason is campaign to Ad is one to many relation thus one campaign can include some Ads. Assume campaignA(Campaign_ID=1) includes Ad1(Ad_id =1)&Ad2(Ad_id =2), RowsOfAD1 = Countrows(FILTER(Impressions, [Ad_id]=1)) RowsOfCampaign1 = Countrows(FILTER(Impressions, AND([Ad_id]=1,[Ad_id]=2))) They are different.

A is correct. I have a doubt about B. Aren't we suppose to group by campaign too? Grouping by AddID, we might have several campaigns against an add. Pls correct me if I am wrong
