double displaying as 0.12 not 12

Question

User-1901014284 posted

Hi,

I have the below code to calculate a division on 2 textboxes based in their int values. the code runs with no issues but returns a result with 0. (for example the final result displays as 0.12 whereas I would like the result to be displayed as 12.

double conhrs, HrsPerYear;
double.TryParse(ContractAnnualHoursTextBox.Text, out conhrs);
double.TryParse(HoursperYearLabel.Text, out HrsPerYear);

double Perc = (double)conhrs / HrsPerYear;
//if (Perc > 0)
TotalPercentageLabel.Text = Perc.ToString("c").Remove(0, 1);

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

If this is a math question, multiply the percentage by 100. 

double Perc = 100.00m * (double)conhrs / (double)HrsPerYear;
