Why is my code not working
The code is actually for paint costs coach code problem. It should take in the number of paints and multiply it by 5. Then add the cost of canvas and brush which is 40. It should then add a tax of 10% and print out the cost to the nearest integer. My code didn't pass case 3 and 4. I decided to add 1 to the answer, it then passed 3 and 4 but failed others. So I'm confused as to whether I'm using round() wrong. Like maybe for cases 3 and 4, its supposed to round up but round() rounds down instead. And that's why adding 1 works. I need help https://code.sololearn.com/caT9P9r6CWbn/?ref=app

On like 12
You are performing division between 2 integers so the result will also be in integer and not float.
So in order to fix it, just caste either numerator or denominator to float (already mentioned by Hima )
Here's fixđ

c=b/10.0;
Change your line 12 with this
You see 9/10 =0 but (9/10.0)!=0 in C/C++

Hima It worked. Thanks. But please why didn't 10 work? Why did we have to use 10.0?

There must be a case similar to what I have mentioned where it is failing .
