easy📝 Syntax Q12 of 15
Step-by-Step Solution
Solution:
Step 1: Identify correct use of script block and $_ variable
Where-Object requires a script block with curly braces and uses $_ to refer to the current object.Step 2: Check each option's syntax
Get-Process | Where-Object { $_.CPU -gt 100 } correctly uses { $_.CPU -gt 100 }. Versions without the script block braces {} are incorrect. The version with { CPU > 100 } misses $_ before CPU.Final Answer:
Get-Process | Where-Object { $_.CPU -gt 100 } -> Option BQuick Check:
{ $_.Property -gt value } syntax = D [OK]
Quick Trick: Always use { $_.Property -operator value } inside Where-Object [OK]
Common Mistakes:
- Omitting curly braces {}
- Not using $_ to reference current object
- Writing condition outside script block
