We define an employee's total earnings to be their monthlyΒ  salary*Months worked, and the maximum total earnings to be the maximum total earnings for any employee in the Employee table.Β 

Write a query to find the maximum total earnings for all employees as well as the total number of employees who have maximum total earnings. Then print these values asΒ  2 space-separated integers.


Input Format

The Employee table containing employee data for a company is described as follows:

where employee_id is an employee's ID number, name is their name, months is the total number of months they've been working for the company, and salary is the their monthly salary.

Sample Input

Sample Output

Β 69952Β  1



Explanation

The table and earnings data is depicted in the following diagram:Β 

The maximum earnings value is 69952. The only employee with earnings = 69952 is Kimberly, so we print the maximum earnings value (69952) and a count of the number of employees who have earned $69952 (which is 1) as two space-separated values.


Solution:

For this challenge, we have to use three functions count(), group by and order by.Β 

Let's see in the below Query.

MY SQL Query:

Select (salary*months) as earnings, count(name) from employee

group by earnings order by earnings desc limit 1;
