I have a Percentage Calculator running like so:

(Current Progress Integer ÷ Max Progress Integer) x 100

Here's an example:

(1273 ÷ 1274) x 100 which results as 99.9215071 but when I do .ToString into a Label it outputs as 100 when obviously it isn't. It seems to be Rounding Up which I don't want.

How can I get around this and post it as 99

Integer number when divided by another integer number doesn't produce a decimal value but still an integer (or short) – Steve Jul 29 '16 at 18:21

Can you show the actual code - it is usually of some importance in coding issues – Ňɏssa Pøngjǣrdenlarp Jul 29 '16 at 18:22
The Duplicate Question solves my issues. Thanks. – Jul 29 '16 at 18:28

Probably another issue related to not having Option Strict On – Sehnsucht Jul 29 '16 at 18:32
@Steve - That depends on if you use the normal division operator (/) or the integer division operator (\\). – Chris Dunaway Aug 01 '16 at 13:59
