1.4 Arithmetic — percent

Total: 0 / 4 pts

Practice mode — check each part and get hints as you go.

Task

This program should print what percent 3 is of 8 — that is 37.5. But it prints 37: the fractional part is lost.

Find the bug and fix it. Keep the same variables; change only what is needed so the result keeps its fractional part.

Your solution

public class Main {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        int part = 3;
        int whole = 8;
        System.out.println(part * 100 / whole);

    }
}
