correction needed in division method

Question about the task

Resolved

public static int plus(int a, int b) {
        //write your code here
        return (a + b);
    }

    public static int minus(int a, int b) {
        //write your code here
        return (a - b);
    }

    public static int multiply(int a, int b) {
        //write your code here
        return (a * b);
    }

    public static double division(int a, int b) {
        //write your code here
        double d = ((double)a/(double)b);
        return d;
    }

    public static double percent(int a, int b) {
        //write your code here
        double c = ((double)b/100)*a;
        return c;
    }

Make a Calculator class, which will have 5 static methods:
int plus(int a, int b) - returns the sum of a and b
int minus(int a, int b) - returns the difference between a and b
int multiply(int a, int b) - returns the product of a and b
double divide(int a, int b) - returns the result of dividing a by b
double percent(int a, int b) - returns b percent of the number a (for example, percent(4, 50) should return 50% of 4)

Requirements:

The plus method must return the sum of a and b.
The minus method must return the difference between a and b.
The multiply method must return the product of a and b.
The divide method must return the result of dividing a by b.
The percent method must return b percent of the number a.

package com.codegym.task.task06.task0612; /* Calculator */ public class Calculator { public static int plus(int a, int b) { //write your code here return (a + b); } public static int minus(int a, int b) { //write your code here return (a - b); } public static int multiply(int a, int b) { //write your code here return (a * b); } public static double division(int a, int b) { //write your code here double d = ((double)a/(double)b); return d; } public static double percent(int a, int b) { //write your code here double c = ((double)b/100)*a; return c; } public static void main(String[] args) { } }

public static double division(int a, int b) {
       //write your code here
       double d = ((double)a/(double)b);
       return d;
   }

Make the method's name from division to divide. Because the condition is : The divide method must return the result of dividing a by b.

As Collin333 said read task conditions carefully... method name is divide and not division.

Try to rename the division() method to divide() as in task conditions, sometimes but rarely CodeGym team forces you to read the task conditions very carefully by making a small spelling difference and generate an error if you're not correcting it. Casting two values a and b in your division method is not necessary since casting either a or b will do.
