Attempted the said with the following site:facebook.com site:business.facebook.com accounting The result includes only the pages in business.facebook.com. The answer which claims to be correct doesn't seem to be correct. In fact, it doesn't make any sense because "site:facebook.com" is overridden by "site:business.facebook.com". This is evident when you swap the order of "site" queries. The answer should be "Results matching "accounting" in marketing.target.com, but not in target.com".
