Hello I am computer science major in florida, just curious to why my code wont give me an actual number, each time I run it and i enter an input i get 0.00

int fahrenheit;
printf("Enter the temperature in degrees fahrenheit \n");
scanf("%d",&fahrenheit);
double celsius;
celsius = (5/9) * ((fahrenheit - 32));
printf("The degrees in celsius is %lf",celsius);

Try `5.0/9`. What you have is integer division which results in `0` for `5/9`. – kaylum Jun 06 '20 at 07:21
