double i = 100 / 3; float j = 100 / 3; System.out.println(i); System.out.println(j);

In java division of two integers in the result returns an integer.

By this, the 100/3 division is first performed and it is 33 . And only then the conversion to the double type occurs and it turns out 33.0

For the result you want, you can divide it like this:

 double i = 100.0 / 3;
