Answer:

X = 12

Step-by-step explanation:

The primary value of X is 5. In line 20 X = X + 5, which is saying the primary value of X ,5, + 5, this is going to return the value of X to now become 10. Now the primary value of X in the program has changed to 10.

In line 30 X = X/5 + X, keeping in mind that the new primary value is not 5 but 10. So now line 30 is saying X = 10/5 + 10. This return the value of X to be 12.
