Everyone loves a discount

Question

#include <iostream>
using namespace std;

int main()
{
int purchaseAmount;
int totalPrice;
//your code goes here
do{
cin >> totalPrice;
purchaseAmount = purchaseAmount + 1;
totalPrice = totalPrice * .15;
cout << totalPrice << endl;

}while(purchaseAmount<3);

return 0;
}

Everything’s correct except last out put
How do I make the first 2 outputs normal and the last a float?

Answer 1

@ You're always Welcome😇

Answer 2

Cody Silvaggio I think it is 0.15, if I am not wrong. So for that I would say, change the data type to double !!!

Answer 3

Cody Silvaggio Actually, There is no restriction on you while attempting any code project, that you can't edit the existing code.😄😄 So you could even use a different approach😎 to run the code correctly. So you can try that!!👍👍

Answer 4

Cody Silvaggio can you clarify ' .15' at the end of totalPrice =.......... !! Is it 0.15 or a dot is there by mistake😐

Answer 5

Ty!!!

Answer 6

Learner_Pratham so i tried double and still only gota the first two out puts correct

Answer 7

Cody Silvaggio Okay!! So can you tell the question, what is it saying??
Or you can just tell me the reference of that question
Like: Platform where this question is, the lesson, is it a code project or practise question, etc.

Answer 8

Learner_Pratham nvm i figured it out, i was not floating the variable itself but was using float within the equation but then floated the variable and it worked

Answer 9

Cody Silvaggio Ok great then👏. Good job👍👍✌.
