I agree with all of them who have answered 40.
It is a simple statement in cobol that

ADD A B TO C. (Means (A+B)+C moved in C)

Here,
ADD 40 X TO X ()

Value of X is 10
So, ADD 40 10 TO 10 (Gives 40+10+10 = 60)


Now, COMPUTE X = 3 * X - 40
Means X = 3 * 60 - 40 (Gives 180 - 40 = 140 )

Since PIC clause for X is 99, hence 140 can't be store in
variable X.

So answer is : 40
