RE: Consider the follwoing IF condition:IF A LESS ...
the answer is a. 27
in the first if else statement the condition fulfills and it will move 57 to C and then gradually going to the 2nd loop the condition again fulfills and then it will replace the previously stored 57 and replace it by 27 as per the condition of the 2nd loop.

b 57.

move 27 to c is executed only if A GT 1200 AND B LESS 67
