I have a doubt.
There are 10 different threads in runnable state. Each having priority 1 to 10. How does the CPU schedules or executes these threads?

The OS has a thread scheduler that will (using an algorithm) decide based on priority and a few other factors, which thread will be run next. If you have a multi-core system, then each CPU can take a thread for it’s account.
There’s also the fact that a thread gets a slot of time, and then gets switched out for another thread and has to wait its turn again.
But thread scheduling is an Operating System function.
I hope that gives you an answer to your question.
