Question

Here is my current code in the controller.

@rating = (@approvals.count / @user.pages.count) + ( @awards.count / @user.stories.count )

When I call each of these variables separately, they come up as the numbers they should. When I add them together, the sum seems to be either 1 or 0. Is there a certain way of adding variable counts together?

I have looked at other posts and either can’t find what I need or am not understanding it.

It could be that you need to convert them to floats. Try to the to_f method.

@rating = (@approvals.count.to_f / @user.pages.count) + ( @awards.count.to_f / @user.stories.count )
