If I divide 150 by 100, I should get 1.5. But I am getting 1.0 when I divided like I did below:
double result = 150 / 100;
Can anyone tell me how to get 1.5?

printf("Enter dividend: "); scanf("%d", ÷nd); printf("Enter divisor: "); scanf("%d", &divisor); Then the quotient is evaluated using / (the division operator), and stored in quotient . quotient = dividend / divisor; Similarly, the remainder is evaluated using % (the modulo operator) and stored in remainder .
In the C Programming Language, the div function divides numerator by denominator. Based on that division calculation, the div function returns a structure containing two members - quotient and remainder.
The variables b, c, d are of float type. But the / operator sees two integers it has to divide and hence returns an integer in the result which gets implicitly converted to a float by the addition of a decimal point. If you want float divisions, try making the two operands to the / floats.
try:
double result = (double)150/100;
When you are performing the division as before:
double result = 150/100;
The devision is first done as an Int and then it gets cast as a double hence you get 1.0, you need to have a double in the equation for it to divide as a double.

Cast one of the ints to a floating point type. You should look into the difference between decimal and double and decide which you want, but to use double:
double result = (double)150 / 100;
