Find employees whose salary is above the average salary of all employees using a subquery in the WHERE section.
The resulting table should have 3 columns: first_name, last_name, and salary. Then, sort the result by salary from highest to lowest using ORDER BY.
Note
This syntax can be used as a great alternative to the
HAVINGclause.

first_name,last_name, andsalarycolumns from theemployeestable. - In the
WHEREclause, use an inner query with the syntaxsalary > [inner query]. - In the inner query, get the average value of the
