MAX is an aggregate function that collapses all matching rows into a single summary value per group. Since GROUP BY category produces exactly one group Electronics, the result is exactly one row showing that category and its maximum price a tie in price does not produce extra rows, because productid was never selected or grouped on. To identify WHICH products hold that max price, a separate query e.g., a subquery or join back to Products WHERE price that max would be needed.
