Loan Calculator quiz am i missing something

The loan calculator quiz asks for an output of total amount left to pay after paying 10% back once a month for 6 months. int amount = scanner.nextInt(); int payment=0; int months=0; while(months <6) { payment = amount/10; amount = amount -payment; months++; } This was my answer and it said i was one dollar off. How do i correct the rounding?

import java.util.Scanner; public class Program { public static void main(String[] args) { Scanner scanner = new Scanner(System.in); double amount = scanner.nextInt(); //your code goes here int i=0; do{ amount=amount-(Math.ceil(amount/10)); i++; } while(i<6); System.out.println((int)amount); } } You need to use math.ceil method also use do while loop.
