You must avoid table scans when you run the queries. You need to create one or more indexes for the table.
Which of the following solutions is/are correct?

Solution 2: You run the following Transact-SQL statement: CREATE NONCLUSTERED INDEX IX_Account_ProductCode ON Account(ProductCode);
Solution 3: You run the following Transact-SQL statement:
Solution 4: You run the following Transact-SQL statement:
How about if I change solution 2 to:
CREATE NONCLUSTERED INDEX IDX ON dbo.<tableName> (PRODUCTCODE) INCLUDE (ACCOUNTNUMBER,BALANCE)
