According to Copilot:
The fill factor in a database determines the percentage of each page (in a page-organized storage system) to be filled with data, leaving the rest as free space for future growth. In your question, the fill factor is 20% for the first design and 40% for the second design. This means that 80% of each page is left as free space in the first design and 60% in the second design.
If we denote the total number of rows that can fit in a page as R, then the number of free rows per page can be calculated as follows:
For the first design: A = R * 80%
For the second design: B = R * 60%
If we divide A by B, we get:
A/B = (R * 80%) / (R * 60%) = 80/60 = 1.33
So, A = 1.33B.
This means that the first design, with a lower fill factor, leaves more free rows per page than the second design.
