6 houses:

2 / 6 = 0.33
* 100 = 33.33

.33 < .5 -> Round rounds down to 33.00

Ceiling -> 34.00

Answer 2

using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Text;
using System.Threading.Tasks;

namespace SoloLearn
{
class Program
{
static void Main(string[] args)
{
int houses;
houses = Convert.ToInt32(Console.ReadLine());

//your code goes here

int result = (int)(Math.Ceiling((double)2/houses*100));
Console.WriteLine(result);
}
}
}

Answer 3

You need to round up. You should use Math.Ceil() and then convert it to int.

Answer 4

Sorry the correct method name is Math.Ceiling()

Ceiling rounds always up.

Answer 5

Thx, but kinda curious, what input would make the code not round up?

Answer 6

I had to use Math.Round because Math.Ceil didnt exist
but same result unfortunatly
