Question about the task

Sum of the digits of a three-digit number

Java Syntax, Level 3, Lesson 12

Under discussion

Can anyone tell me what i did wrong? Thanks!!!

Write the code for sumDigitsInNumber(int number). The method takes a three-digit whole number. You need to calculate the sum of the digits of this number, and then return the result.

Consider this example:
The sumDigitsInNumber method is called with the argument 546.

Example output:
15

Requirements:

The program must not read data from the keyboard.
The sumDigitsInNumber(int) method must be public and static.
The sumDigitsInNumber method must return an int.
The sumDigitsInNumber method should not display anything.
The sumDigitsInNumber method must return the sum of all digits in the parameter number.

package com.codegym.task.task01.task0132; /* Sum of the digits of a three-digit number */ public class Solution { public static void main(String[] args) { System.out.println(sumDigitsInNumber(546)); } public static int sumDigitsInNumber(int number) { int sum = number / 10; int sum1 = sum/10; int sum2 = number / 10; int sum3 = sum2 / 10; int sum4 = number / 10; int sum5 = sum4 / 10; int sumAll = sum1 + sum3 + sum5; return sumAll; } }

Use the modulus (%) operator to get remainder

Your solution provides only the correct answer for 546. Try changing the value to 536 (should return 14) or 526 (should return 13). In both these examples your solution still returns 15. Change the method so that it will return the sum of all the digits of any number passed to it. I used the modulus operator ( % ) in my solution.
