When both operands are int, / is the euclidian division. Cast at least one operand as a double to prevent this. double x = (double)(7%6)/2*5;

here' / 'does not represent normal division. It represents quotient after performing division. 1/2=0

if you use the following the output is 2.5: double x=(7%6)/2.0*5.0; once you turn an operand into a fraction / is treated as float division.
