Using several conditions in a query is a very common scenario because, in many cases, we are required to build a query with a set of filters to get the most accurate results.

Conditions in queries can use the AND or OR operators.

A relation that creates an intersection between conditions is called an AND relation. This means all the common rows for Filter A and Filter B will be retrieved.
