I need to know how to make the applet calculate how many times a number for example 605 can be diveded by 200. The anwser is 3 but how can i make the applet calculate this

plz help!!!!

 

 

Ehh... do you mean like this?

int answer = 605 / 200;

 

 

You're not making 100% sense here.

How many times can 605 be divided by 200? the answer is infinate times, with progressively smaller results:-

605 / 200 = 3.025
3.025 / 200 = 0.015125

etc etc. you can keep going for ever.

I wonder if you actually mean how can i divide 605 by 200 (using integers only) ?

in the which case:-

int result = 605 / 200; // result now contains 3

this is of course as opposed to:-
float result = 605 / 200; // result contains 3.025

Hope that helps.

 

 

yes but then i need to have two remainings

int value = (5 because 605-600=5)
int result = (3 not 3,1 its got to be rounded to the lowest number always)

how can you do that

you have to excuse me for my english because it is not so good.

ill try to explain why i need this

i have to make a payment machine where you can enter a number and it will pay you bills.

it must always pay you the largest possible bill first and the the smaller one etc etc.

so if you type 650 it has to pay you

1x 500
1x 100
1x 50

and not

6x 100
1x 50

 

 

for (i=1, i<1000, i++) {
if 605/i*200 < 200 break..
so i would be the 3

 

 

can u please be more clear

ROFLMAO (not at the code, but at the dukes)

you actually get the same result when you do just
int result = 605 / 200; // result == 3
and if you want that reminder then you just
int reminder = 605 % 200; // reminder == 5

for making it more clear:
int result = 29 / 10; // result == 2
int reminder = 29 % 10; // reminder == 9

you see, that result never gets rounded up.

 

 

ok

I multiplicate 200 as often as I reach a number thats lower than 200.
The result is how often I had to multiplicate 200.

The result is how often I had to subtract 200.

605 - 200 - 200 - 200 = 5 < 200
0 1 2 3 .. the result is 3

 

 

thanx ikohl taht really helped a lot

it works just fine know

 

 

please

I enjoyed helping you
