The value "D" is assigned to the variable grade if the exam score is greater than 60 but not greater than 70 or if the exam score is greater than 70 with no specific condition on the presentation score.

In the given code segment, the value "D" will be assigned to the variable grade under two conditions:

Condition 1 (exam > 60):

If the exam score is greater than 60, the code will enter the block where grade is assigned the value "D". This is the straightforward condition where the exam score alone, irrespective of the presentation score, determines the grade.

Condition 2 (exam > 70 OR presentation > 60):

If the exam score is greater than 70 or the presentation score is greater than 60, the code will enter the block where grade is assigned the value "C". However, if this condition is not met, it will proceed to the next ELSE block, where grade is assigned the value "D". Therefore, even if the presentation score is not high, as long as the exam score is above 60 but not greater than 70, the value "D" will be assigned.

In summary, "D" will be assigned to the variable grade if either the exam score is greater than 60 but not greater than 70, or if the exam score is greater than 70 and the presentation score is not relevant or not greater than 60.

The question probable may be:

Consider the following code segment, where exam and presentation are integer variables and grade is a string variable. Under which of the following conditions will the value "D" be assigned to the variable grade? Select TWO answers

IF ( ( exam > 90 ) AND ( presentation > 80 ) )

{

grade <-- "A"

}

IF ( ( exam > 80) OR ( presentation > 75) )

{

grade <-- "B"

}

ELSE

{

IF ( ( exam > 70) OR ( presentation > 60 ) )

{

grade <-- "C"

}

ELSE

{

IF ( exam> 60)

{

grade <-- "D"

}

ELSE

{

grade <-- "F"

}

}
