int newReading = 600; int ReadingA = 780; int ReadingB = 260; double FinReading = ((newReading-ReadingB)/(ReadingA-ReadingB))*100; System.out.print(FinReading);
why is the output of this always 0.0 (or 0 if an int) instead of 65???

Output of 0 or 100?
int newReading = 600; int ReadingA = 780; int ReadingB = 260; double FinReading = ((newReading-ReadingB)/(ReadingA-ReadingB))*100; System.out.print(FinReading);
why is the output of this always 0.0 (or 0 if an int) instead of 65???
Re: Output of 0 or 100?
Because 260 / 520 will return 0, and 0 * 100 is still 0
