For each of the calls to the following recursive method below, indicate what output is produced: 

public static void recursionMystery1X(int x, int y) {
    if (y <= 0) {
        System.out.print("0 ");
    } else if (x > y) {
        System.out.print(x + " ");
        recursionMystery1X(x - y, y);
    } else {
        recursionMystery1X(x, y - x);
        System.out.print(y + " ");
        if (y % 3 == 0) {
            recursionMystery1X(x, y - x);
        }
    }
}
recursionMystery1X(6, 3);
recursionMystery1X(2, 3);
recursionMystery1X(5, 8);
recursionMystery1X(21, 12);
recursionMystery1X(3, 10);
