Paint Costs Exercise Help

Hi, I am trying to do the paint costs exercise in C++ and I am passing all the test cases except the last one. Can you please help to see the flaw in my code? My current code is: #include <iostream> #include <cmath> using namespace std; int main() { int paint; float tax; float total; cin >> paint; total = 40.00 + (paint * 5.00); tax = total * 0.1; total += tax; cout << ceil(total); return 0; }

As Ярослав Вернигора(Yaroslav Vernigora) said you round off it or convert the ceil to int

Hi! most likely, you did not meet this condition: "Output format A number representing the value of your purchase, rounded to the nearest integer."

Isn't that what the ceil() function does? All the other test cases have rounded up, but I'm not sure why the last test case won't pass.

cout << (int)ceil(total);
