What does class=""XXX" mean in this context?

Again, this is from a SAS practice test:

class="rteindent1">
squash 1.10 class="rteindent1">

What does this class="rteindent1" mean in this context, ant what is the purpose of that ">"-sign at the end?

This class statement (along with "rteindent1" was repeated in every single line in the example, what's the meaning of this?

I have no idea, not seen that syntax in SAS code before. Are you sure its not html/xml, they use angular brackets in tags. If not please provide more context around your example, i.e. where you think you would see this.

Where are you getting this from. It looks very much like the source is corrupt, i.e. if you had copied something from a web page. The class="rteindent1"> is from html: for example a quick search:

https://www.drupal.org/project/ckeditor/issues/921826

What your code and datafile should look like is:

Datafile;

John McCloskey 35 71
June Rosesette 10 43
Tineke Jones 9 37

Program:

data work.homework;
  infile 'file-specification';
  input name $ age height;
  if age LE 10;
run;

What you have is additional tag information where its been copied badly from a web page.

Oh well, as long as I don't have to encounter this IRL.
