An unexpected result about divide in C [duplicate]

Answer 1

In your code, N, D1, D2, D3, all are ints, so the calculation

(D1*100 + D2*10 + D3 + N) / 2;

is performed as integer arithmetic and later the result is being promoted to double. So, the result is just a double representation of an int value.

To enforce a floating point arithmatic, either

1. Change the operand data type(s) to double or float.
2. Cast at least one operand to float.

Answer 2

Just add double. See below:

#include <stdio.h>
int main(void)
{
    int N, D1, D2, D3;
    double aver;

scanf("%d", &N);
D1 = N % 10;
D2 = ((N - D1) / 10) % 10;
D3 = (N - D1 - D2) / 100;
aver = (double)(D1*100 + D2*10 + D3 + N) / 2;

printf("%lf", aver);

return 0;
}
