Analyze the following program segment and determine how many times the body of the loop will be executed (show the working).
x = 5; y = 50;
while(x<=y)
{
y = y / x;
System.out.println(y);
}

The loop will execute 2 times.
Working
| x | y | Remarks |
|---|---|---|
| 5 | 50 | Initial values |
| 5 | 10 | After 1st iteration |
| 5 | 2 | After 2nd iteration |
After 2 iterations y becomes less than x so condition of while loop becomes false and it stops executing.
