simple math question?

[seby]

$yes = '18';
$no = '36';

how do i get the percentage of Yes and the percent of No based on both variables combined?

[dalecosp]

$sum=$yes+$no;
if ($yes>$no) {
   $yespc=ceil($sum/$yes); #majority rules!!
   $nopc=floor($sum/$no);
}
elseif ($no>$yes) {
   $yespc=floor($sum/$yes);
   $nopc=ceil($sum/$no);
}
else {
    $yespc=$nopc=50;
}

Kludge alert! 😃

Wait for the heavyweights!!

<?php
$yes  = 18;
$no = 36;
$total = $yes+$no;
$pY = $yes/$total;
echo $pY;
echo "<br>";
echo $pY*100;
echo "%";
?>

We both forgot something --- try this instead...

<?
$yes=36;
$no=18;
$sum=$yes+$no;
$yespc=number_format((($yes/$sum)*100),2);   $nopc=number_format((($no/$sum)*100),2);
echo $yespc."%---Yes<br><br>";
echo $nopc. "%---No";

?>
