PERFORM ACCUMULATE-TOTALS
VARYING A FROM 1 BY 2 UNTIL A >2
AFTER B FROM 1 BY 1 UNTIL B>2
AFTER C FROM 2 BY -1 UNTIL C<2.
ACCUMULATE-TOTALS.
ADD 1 TO ACCUMULATE-CNT.
DISPLAY 'A - ' , A.
DISPLAY 'B - ' , B.
DISPLAY 'C - ' , C.
Ans is 2 - The loop will be executed until all the condition
(A > 2, B > 2, C < 2) becomes True.
Execution : 1 Condition is
A - 1 True
B - 1 True
C - 2 False
Execution : 2
A - 1 False
B - 2 True
C - 2 False
When going for 3rd execution - No condition Will be True

Answer / shan
looping happens for following values of
A, B, C
1, 1, 2 = 1st
1, 2, 2 = 2nd
2, 1, 2 = 3rd
2, 2, 2 = 4th
So totally four times this will get executed
