Why does 15 ÷ 4 equal 3 on this question? Is that a mistake or something the program automatically does?

Answer 1

your both operands (15 and 4)are integers, that's why it return an integer value.
try using 15.0 ÷4 or you could try 15÷4.0
that will give you 3.75

Answer 2

Yeah it's not an error 15 divided by 4 will give you 3.••••, so just take the integer in front and ignore the decimal places

Answer 3

yes, you have declared an integer type so the output is integer value and it doesn't print decimal value

Answer 4

but shouldn't the program give as a result 4? Doesn't it rounds the number to make it integer? 3.75 rounds to 4

Answer 5

@ser gio
the program is not rounding off the result instead its just taking the integer part like integer of 3.75 =3
hope this helps .
