A confusion with the Halloween Candy problem from Code Coach

Question

Can anybody tell me why this code is not working?below mentioned code is not working for test result 3,4&5.
p = (2/houses)*100
b = p%1
if b<=0.5:
p = p-b
else:
p = p-b+1
print(int(p))

Answer 1

Rithea Sreng Thanks a lot lot lot. It worked <3

Answer 2

oh! It is easy. I thought it would be complex. Thanks for clearing it up in seconds :D

Answer 3

Rithea Sreng print(3.5%1) gives a output 0.5. So it won't be zero.

Answer 4

But I have b>0

Answer 5

Is there any way to know what was in test result 3,4&5?

Answer 6

I have seen this solution in discussions. Now I have to learn how .ceil() works. Thanks ^_^
