Final answer:

After executing the statements, the variable 'a' will store the value 0 as a result of the modulus operation followed by division.

Step-by-step explanation:

The question asks what will be stored in variable a after the following statements are executed in a programming context:

int a = -10;
a = 10 % 10 / 10;

Here's the breakdown:

  1. The initial value of a is set to -10.
  2. Then a is reassigned with the result of the expression 10 % 10 / 10.
  3. 10 % 10 will yield 0 because the modulus operator (%) computes the remainder of the division of 10 by 10.
  4. Next, the result (which is 0) is divided by 10, yielding 0 because any number divided by itself is 1, and the remainder of something divided by itself is 0.
  5. Therefore, the final value stored in a after the expression is executed will be 0.
