Predict the output of the following program snippet:
int a = sc.nextInt();
int b = sc.nextInt();
int p = a*b:
int x = 0;
for (int i = 1; i<p; i++)
{
if(a%i==0 && b%i==0)
x=i;
}
System.out.println("a=" +a+ "b=" +b+ "x=" +x);
Kindly explain briefly (cuz I'm dumb I won't understand if you just write tge output)

Explanation:
This program snippet takes user input values for two integers `a` and `b`. It then computes the product of the two integers and stores it in the variable `p`. It then initializes a variable `x` to `0`. The for loop starts from `i=1` and runs until `i<p`. In each iteration of the loop, it checks if both `a` and `b` are divisible by `i`. If true, it stores the value of `i` in the variable `x`. After the loop is complete, it prints the values of `a`, `b`, and `x`.
The output of the program will depend on the user input values of `a` and `b`. If `a` and `b` have a common factor, the program will output the largest common factor of `a` and `b` as `x`. If `a` and `b` are relatively prime, then the value of `x` will be `1`.
