by default if you are working with integers you'll always get integers back (by truncation). If you want floating point numbers then you should convert the numbers you're working with to floating point numbers first (using to_f), so 5 /2 will always return 2, but 5.0 / 2 will produce 2.5 > > I have looked at number_with_precision but rather then getting 2.75 I > get 2.00 number_with_precision is for formatting a number, you still need to actually have a number with the floating point component.
