Answer 1

Solution and Example:

1- C:\MongoDB\Server\3.2\bin>mongo (do not issue command yet because you are not connected to any database yet, you are only connected to database server mongodb).

2-

show dbs analytics_database 0.000GB local 0.000GB test_database 0.000GB

3-

use test_database switched to db test_database

4-

db.Collection.remove({"_id": ObjectId("5694a3590f6d451c1500002e")}, 1); WriteResult({ "nRemoved" : 1 })

now you see WriteResult({ "nRemoved" : 1 }) is 1 not 0.

Done.
