data you can query
Energy dataset: the first 6 rows of each table. Under each column name: the kind of value it holds, and which table it links to. Your queries run on all rows.

SELECT ( SELECT COUNT(*) FROM ( SELECT fuel_code FROM fuel_sample WHERE ba_code = 'ISNE' UNION SELECT fuel_code FROM fuel_sample WHERE ba_code = 'NYIS' ) ) AS union_rows, ( SELECT COUNT(*) FROM ( SELECT fuel_code FROM fuel_sample WHERE ba_code = 'ISNE' UNION ALL SELECT fuel_code FROM fuel_sample WHERE ba_code = 'NYIS' ) ) AS union_all_rows
SELECT (SELECT COUNT(*) FROM (SELECT fuel_code FROM fuel_sample WHERE ba_code = 'ISNE' UNION SELECT fuel_code FROM fuel_sample WHERE ba_code = 'NYIS')) AS union_rows, (SELECT COUNT(*) FROM (SELECT fuel_code FROM fuel_sample WHERE ba_code = 'ISNE' UNION ALL SELECT fuel_code FROM fuel_sample WHERE ba_code = 'NYIS')) AS union_all_rows
Look at the sample tables and SQL. Enter the rows you think the query returns, in this column order: union_rows, union_all_rows. Put each row in square brackets, then wrap all rows in another pair of brackets (JSON format). For example, [[1,null]] is one row with 2 values. Replace these with your predicted values. Use numbers without quotes, text in double quotes, and null for SQL NULL. Keep repeated rows. Use [] for no rows. Keep rows in the order specified by ORDER BY.
