Solution

The loop will execute 5 times. Here's how it works:

  1. Initially, a is 1 and x is 0.
  2. In the first iteration, x is assigned the value of a (which is 1) times a (which is incremented to 2 after the multiplication). So, x becomes 1*2 = 2.
  3. In the second iteration, a is 2 and it's incremented to 3 after the multiplication. So, x becomes 2*3 = 6.
  4. In the third iteration, a is 3 and it's incremented to 4 after the multiplication. So, x becomes 3*4 = 12.
  5. In the fourth iteration, a is 4 and it's incremented to 5 after the multiplication. So, x becomes 4*5 = 20.
  6. In the fifth iteration, a is 5 and it's incremented to 6 after the multiplication. So, x becomes 5*6 = 30.

After the fifth iteration, a is 6 which is more than 5, so the loop condition a<=5 is not satisfied and the loop stops executing.

Therefore, the loop executes 5 times and the final value of x is 30.
